Question

Explain why do we wear woolen clothes in winter?


Open in App
Solution

  1. Woolen clothing contains fine pores that are filled with air.
  2. Both wool and air are poor heat conductors.
  3. As a result, we wear woolen clothes in the winter because they prevent heat transfer from the body to the environment, keeping the body warm.
