Question

Water kept in the sun evaporates faster than water kept in shade. Give reasons.

Answer 1

1. As we already know, the rate of evaporation is directly proportional to the temperature of the surroundings.
2. If the temperature of the surroundings is more, evaporation will be more and vice-versa.
3. Water kept in sun means the high temperature of surroundings and water kept in shade means the low temperature of the surroundings.
4. Therefore, water kept in the sun evaporates faster than water kept in shade.
