Answer:emperature is defined in terms of the energy of the vibration of atoms, so it doesn’t apply in direct sunlight. Temperature is always given “in the shade”, which in effect gives you the temperature of the air. I once came across someone who placed a thermometer in the sunlight and to try to measure the temperature “in direct sunlight”. I pointed out to him that the sunlight would warm up his thermometer, which in turn loses heat to the air and re-radiation. He would get a reading that depends on the rate at which the thermometer loses heat to the surrounding air, which depends on the construction of the thermometer - the rate of heat loss increases with temperature so the heating effect would eventually reach a balance with the loss and give you a reading, which is otherwise meaningless.
