Why are white clothes cooler then black clothes on a hot day?

White clothes reflect more light and heat, keeping them cooler compared to black clothes that absorb more light and heat. This difference in heat absorption affects how the clothes feel against the skin on a hot day.


Why do clothes dry faster on a sunny day than on a cloudy one?

Clothes dry faster on a sunny day because of the sun's heat and radiation. The sun helps to evaporate moisture from the clothes more quickly, speeding up the drying process. In contrast, on a cloudy day, there is less direct sunlight and heat, which slows down the evaporation of moisture from the clothes.


Why is it cooler to wear light-colored clothes on a hot day than dark clothes?

Light-colored clothes reflect more sunlight, while dark-colored clothes absorb more heat. This means that light-colored clothes don't absorb as much heat from the sun, keeping you cooler on hot days compared to dark clothes which can make you feel hotter.


Why do you need to change clothes?

Technically, you do not HAVE to change your clothes. If you watch Arthur, Dora and Backyardigans, you will notice they never change clothes although apparently they often go shopping for clothes and borrow clothes from each other. But they are cartoon characters. SO does that mean you are a cartoon character? If you are, well then, yes, don't change your clothes. And if you aren't then you don't HAVE to change clothes. But it is considered unclean in the human community. And most people want to wear a wide variety of clothes so it looks nice to the human eye, and so others don't get tired of it. Also, in some communities, the same clothes worn each day, isn't a respectful look. In other words, it is not a great idea to not change your clothes, but if you really want to be a real-life Arthur, well then, have fun with that!
