Question

Weatherstripping prevents heat loss by

a. lessening evaporation.
b. reducing convection and conduction.
c. preventing condensation.
d. increasing radiation. ...?

Answer 1

Answer: Weatherstripping can refer to either the process or the agent that is used to seal small openings around windows, doors, trunk lids and other areas where a tight seal is desired. Essentially weatherstripping is designed to eliminate a flow or draft from an interior space to an exterior space. Because of this property, weatherstripping is often added to window sashes and doors in order to allow for more efficient heating and cooling of the interior space.

So “B” Is the answer of your question.

Explanation:Weatherstripping can take on several different forms. When it comes to dealing with drafts originating from a small open space between the bottom of a door and the floor, the addition of a small rubber strip along the threshold will often be sufficient to seal the area. The weather stripping will effectively block the airflow between inside and outside, while still allowing the door to be opened and closed with ease. Weatherstripping doors may be accomplished when the door is hung, or added at a later time as the house settles.
