Assertion–Reason (Clothing & Heat):\nAssertion (A): We prefer to wear white clothes in winter.\nReason (R): White clothes are good reflectors of heat (radiation).

Introduction / Context:
This question probes everyday thermal reasoning about clothing color and radiative heat transfer in different seasons.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• Assertion claims a winter preference for white clothes.
• Reason asserts that white reflects heat effectively.

Concept / Approach:
White surfaces reflect most incident radiation and absorb less; black/dark surfaces absorb more. In hot conditions (summer), white clothing reduces solar heat gain and feels cooler. In cold conditions (winter), people generally prefer darker colors to absorb available radiant heat, all else equal.

Step-by-Step Solution:
1) A: Typically false—people tend to prefer dark colors in winter for warmth; white is commonly preferred in summer.2) R: True—white is a good reflector of radiation.3) Relation: R being true actually contradicts the supposed winter “preference” in A, reinforcing that A is false.

Verification / Alternative check:
Consider outdoor sunlight exposure: white garments reduce radiant heat absorption, beneficial in heat, not cold.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Any claim that A is true does not align with standard thermal behavior and common practice.

Common Pitfalls:
Overgeneralizing cultural dress codes irrespective of physics; ignoring that insulation, thickness, windproofing also matter but color trend remains.

Final Answer:
A is false but R is true.
