Question

0 3. Differentiate between:
(a) Humidity and clouds
(b) Relative humidity and Absolute
humidity
(c) Cumulus clouds and cumulonimbus
clouds​

Answer 1

Answer:

a) Humidity refers to the quantity of water vapour present in the atmosphere. Clouds refer to the collection of water vapour at a greater height in the sky. Humidity determines whether the air is dry or damp. Clouds depend on the process of condensation for their formation.

b)Absolute humidity is the measure of water vapor (moisture) in the air, regardless of temperature. ... Relative humidity also measures water vapor but RELATIVE to the temperature of the air.

c)Cumulus clouds are formed due to the vertical flow of air. Cumulus clouds appear huge and are dome-shaped. Cumulonimbus clouds appear like huge mountain and have an anvil shaped top portion. These clouds are grey in colour and are responsible for fair and pleasent weather.
