Question

On a summer day,a scooter rider feels more comfortable while on the move than while at a stop lightbecause________.

A.

an object in motion captures less solar radiation

B.

air is transparent to radiation and hence it is cooler than the body

C.

more heat is lost by convection and radiation while in motion

D.

air has a low specific heat and hence it is cooler

Answer ( Option C)

more heat is lost by convection and radiation while in motion

Solution

●The situation corresponds to convection and radiation when the scooter is in motion and the convective heat transfer coefficient for convection is greater than that of free convection.

●More the air flows, more will be the convection heat transfer. When we rise air flow is more as compared to when we are at rest but in riding condition the heat transfer by convection is more and rider feel comfortable in summer days

Hence, the correct option is (C).
