Question

It is seen that water from wet surfaces such as roads disappears without heating. Explain how this happens.

Answer 1

When it is day time, the sun shines on all water bodies like oceans, rivers and lakes and also in roads and rooftops. Sunlight also carries heat with it. This is why water from all surfaces disappear and get converted to vapour. And even when there is not enough sunlight, the temperature maybe high so water gets converted to vapour.
