Temperature of land rises more quickly than that of sea because

Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks why the land temperature rises more quickly than the sea. 
Option 1: "water is liquid". While it is true that water is liquid, this statement does not explain the differential heating rate between land and sea, so it does not address the underlying physical reason.
Option 2: "specific heat of soil is more than water". If soil had a higher specific heat than water, it would heat up more slowly, not more quickly. This contradicts the observed phenomenon and is therefore incorrect.
Option 3: "soil is solid". The fact that soil is solid is not the mechanism that determines how fast it heats compared to water. The phase of matter alone doesn’t explain the contrasting heating rates between land and sea.
Option 4: "specific heat of soil is less than water". This directly explains the faster warming of land: a lower specific heat means less energy is required to raise the temperature of soil by a given amount, so land heats up more quickly than seawater under the same energy input.
