Night

Solution

Part A:

  1. The flow of wind from the land to the sea is known as the land breeze. It occurs near coastal areas.
  2. At night, the land gets cool quicker than the sea. Thus, the warmer air above the sea rises, and the cooler air above the land that is denser than the warmer air moves towards the sea and takes the place that is left vacant by the warmer air.
  3. Therefore, land breeze occurs at night.

Thus, (A)-(4)

Part B:

  1. The flow of wind from the sea to the land is known as the sea breeze. It occurs near coastal areas.
  2. During the day, the land gets hot quicker than the sea. Thus, the warmer air above the land rises, and the cooler air above the sea which is denser than the warmer air moves towards the land and takes the place that is left vacant by the warmer air.
  3. Therefore, the sea breeze occurs during the day.

Thus, (B)-(3)

Sea breeze and Land breeze

Part C:

  1. Dark-colored clothes absorb most of the wavelengths. The black color absorbs all the wavelengths.
  2. Therefore, they absorb more radiation. This makes them good absorbers of heat.
  3. Thus, dark colors are preferred in winter to keep warm.

Thus, (C)-(2)

Part D:

  1. Light-colored clothes reflect most of the wavelengths.
  2. Therefore, they reflect more radiations. This makes them bad absorbers of heat.
  3. Thus, bright colors are preferred in summers to be protected from heat.

Thus, (D)-(1)

Hence, the correct answer is (A)-(4), (B)-(3), (C)-(2), and (D)-(1).
