Answer 4 questions correctly in a row.

Kendra is outside with her friend on a sunny day. Kendra is wearing a light-colored shirt, and she notices that she feels colder than her friend, who is wearing a dark shirt. She wonders what factors affect how fabric warms an object. So, she decides to design an experiment. She has the following supplies available:

a black cotton shirt
a white cotton shirt
two identical empty glass jars
two thermometers

Using only these supplies, which question can Kendra investigate with an experiment?

When wrapped in a cotton shirt and placed in the sun, does a large jar or a small jar heat up more?

When placed in the sun, does a glass jar wrapped in a black cotton shirt heat up more than a glass jar wrapped in a white cotton shirt?

When placed in the sun, does a glass jar wrapped in cotton heat up more than a glass jar wrapped in wool?
