The car absorbs heat from the surrounding until it reaches thermal equilibrium, where the car and the surrounding temperature is balanced. However, heat conducts faster from solids then from gases, so we feel the heat much faster. Also, there is less air circulation in a car due to limited space, resulting in heat unable to escape while in surrounding, the hotter particles can float up and allow the heat to be transferred away.

Why are there water droplets formed on the car?

Is a white car cooler than a black car or will both cars reach the same temperature IN THE SUN after a measurable period of time?

Both a white car and a black car will reach similar temperatures when left in the sun for a period of time. The color of the car affects how much heat is absorbed, but ultimately both will heat up due to solar radiation. Other factors such as the material and insulation of the car play a bigger role in determining the internal temperature.


Can you provide an explanation for the implosion of a tanker car?

The implosion of a tanker car can occur when the pressure inside the car becomes significantly higher than the pressure outside, causing the walls of the car to collapse inward. This can happen due to factors such as rapid changes in temperature or pressure, structural weaknesses in the car, or improper loading of the cargo. The sudden collapse of the tanker car can result in a dangerous release of the cargo and potential hazards to the surrounding area.
