Heat is just measure of motion. Something being “hot” just means it has molecular mobility. Now just think of it this way, something moving faster has a better chance of dislodging something stuck than something moving slower. And that’s all it is, the water is imparting it’s heats, or it’s motion, into the stuck on dirt.
