ELI5: When sunlight passes through a window pane, why are objects on the other side hotter than the pane itself?
gpt
The Sun sends our way a constant supply of light, which is a stream of particle-waves called photon. Photon carries the energy and when it it absorbed, it transfers it's energy to the object which absorbed it. So when photons pass through a glass pane, most of them are let through (that' why you can see through the pane) so they don't transfer thei energy to the pane, but they carry on, until they hit something that absorbs them and only then they hand over their energy (absoption of photons is also reason, why black materials heat up faster. black simply absorbs every 'color' of photon, so morr photons hand over their energy)
