(iii) Dark coloured clothes are preferred during (c) day
(iv) Light coloured clothes are preferred during (d) night
Q.5. Discuss why wearing more layers of clothing during winter keeps us warmer than wearing just one thick piece of clothing.
Q.6. Look at Fig.4.13 Mark where the heat is being transferred by conduction, convection, and radiation.

In this course, we will discuss various aspects relating to “Heat” including the following: 1. Is our sense of touch reliable to decide whether an object is hot or cold? 2. What is clinical thermometer and how can we read a thermometer? 3. Why does the mercury not fall or rise in a clinical thermometer when taken out of the mouth? 4. Is the body temperature of every person 37°C? 5. What is laboratory thermometer? For which purpose, it is used? 6. What are the three modes of transfer of heat? 7. Discuss the process of conduction, convection and radiation with examples. 8. How does the heat travel in air? 9. Write a note on Sea Breeze and Land Breeze. 10. How does the heat from sun reach us? 11. Is it possible to construct buildings that are not affected much by heat and cold outside? + 11 NCERT Questions with Answers
