Most of the atmospheric water vapor interacts and forms clouds in the: stratosphere mesosphere thermosphere troposphere
slavikrds [6]

Answer: Troposphere

Explanation:

Clouds form in the troposphere, which is the layer of the atmosphere that is closest to Earth.

The process of cloud formation starts with warm, moist air that rises because warm air rises. This air cools as it rises. The temperature of the rising air drops until the air can no longer rise further and it expands into the troposphere. The water vapor in the air then condenses to form water droplets which form clouds.

r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Explanation:

In order to be able to answer this question effectively and efficiently we have to consider the Newton's law of Universal gravitation which is given by the mathematical representation below;

Gravitational force, F = G (m1 × m2) / r^2.

Where G = Gravitational constant, m1 and m2 and the masses of body one and two respectively and r = distance.

So, we can deduce that the mass(in form of kinetic energy) increase at large distance and this makes the speed to reduce.
