Solution

Wet clothes do not dry easily on a rainy day because,

  • The humidity level in the atmosphere is already high, so it becomes difficult for moisture to change into vapour.
  • The rate of evaporation is directly proportional to the temperature.
  • So the rate of evaporation is high on warm days than on cold or rainy days.
  • Therefore the clothes remain wet.
