Answer 1

A person would feel cooler wearing a white shirt rather than a black shirt on a sunny day because light would be mostly reflected rather than absorbed or transmitted.

White clothing reflects most of the sunlight, while black clothing absorbs most of it, leading to more heat being trapped and a warmer feeling.
