Which of the following is a wrong pair of clothes worn during a particular season?
A. Cotton clothes during summer
B. Woolen clothes during winter
C. Dark colored clothes during summer
D. Polyester raincoats during rainy season

Explanation

Solution

This explains mode of heat transfer in different bodies and summer season is usually a very hot time of the year and there is a need to put on the right and perfect kind of cloth to withstand the prevailing climatic condition.

Complete step by step answer:
We can wear woolen clothes in winter as they store the heat inside them keeping our body worm.
Cotton clothes in summer is also preferred because it does not allow much heat as summer is a very hot season and keeps our body cool.
Polyester clothes do not absorb water thus not making our clothes and body wet in rainy seasons.
Dark clothes must not be worn in summer because dark colored clothes absorb more radiant heat than they emit and as such during summer the temperature of the surrounding is high and thereby makes the person putting on the clothes uncomfortable.
These clothes are a material medium with which heat is passed to the person putting on the clothes where convective heat flow is responsible (flow of surrounding air molecules when they might have absorbed heat).
Heat is always lost through this process either by the surrounding which gives out heat to the system or the system or object gives heat to the surrounding, at a point there is bound to be a coexistence or equilibrium between the them
Therefore, the correct option is Option C, dark colored clothes must not be worn during summer season.

Note: Dark colored clothes are preferably worn during winter and rainy season unlike the other colored and light clothes that suit summer time. It can also be observed during day and night at the sea side where the land surrounding the sea is cold to the feet and the sea becomes hot and vice versa.
