Why does the sun reflect off of white and not black?

-- Where you see white, you see a surface that reflects all colors. If it didn't reflect all colors, you would see only the colors that it does reflect. -- Black is not a color. It's the absence of light. An object that appears black to you is one that absorbs light of all colors, so there's no light remaining to proceed from it to your eyes.

Why does black atract the sun?

Black absorbs light rays easily and absorbs all colors, making you feel hotter if you wear black. However, white doesn't absorb light rays and reflects all colors, so you might prefer to wear that or another light color such as lime green, pastel blue, or pink on a hot day. On the other hand, on a chilly winter day dark colors would be the smart choice.


What happens when the sun's rays hit the Earth's surface?

Radiant energy will either be reflected or absorbed by a surface. The usual rule regarding this reflection depends on the color of the object and the color of the light. For example, a red object only reflects red light, and absorbs the rest. A blue object only reflects blue light, and absorbs the rest. This goes for all of the colors. When radiant energy is absorbed, the object will heat up. Hope this helps!
