B
Decreased evaporation due to air movement
C
Increased condensation
D
Sublimation effect
Correct Answer: Option A — Increased evaporation due to air movement
Explanation:
Wind increases evaporation by continuously removing the saturated air layer near the wet cloth surface allowing more water molecules to esca...
Wind increases evaporation by continuously removing the saturated air layer near the wet cloth surface allowing more water molecules to escape into the atmosphere causing faster drying.
