Select one: a. standing in a breeze after getting out a pool in summer b. droplets of water condensing on the side of a cold drink on a hot and humid day c. fog forming on the mirror in a bathroom d. cumulus clouds forming on a hot summer afternoon

Answer 1

Answer:

a. standing in a breeze after getting out a pool in summer  is an example of evaporative cooling .

Explanation:

As in summer season , the wind will be warm and dry , and after coming out of the pool the body will have a layer of water droplets and these water droplets will come in contact with the warm air , the water droplets will evaporate and in turn causes a cooling effect .

Evaporation causes cooling , because , during the process of evaporation the liquid particles absorb some energy from its surrounding , hence , due to this absorption of energy the surrounding turns cooler.
