    Here is an example:

    Anthony and Maelynn are watching a football game outside on a sunny day. Anthony is wearing a black shirt and Maelynn is wearing a white shirt. Which person will be warmer after the game?

    Anthony will be warmer since black is a dark color and dark colors absorb the sun, while light color reflect it. His black shirt will absorb the heat so therefore, he will be warmer.

    Answer:

    because the colour black absorbs heat which will make you feel much hotter than a white shirt which blocks away heat.
