a. standing in a breeze after getting out a pool in summer is an example of evaporative cooling.

Explanation:

As in summer season, the wind will be warm and dry, and after coming out of the pool the body will have a layer of water droplets and these water droplets will come in contact with the warm air, the water droplets will evaporate and in turn causes a cooling effect.

Evaporation causes cooling, because, during the process of evaporation the liquid particles absorb some energy from its surrounding, hence, due to this absorption of energy the surrounding turns cooler.
