Answer:
Humidity, or water vapor content of the air, also has an effect on evaporation. The lower the relative humidity, the drier the air, and the higher the evaporation rate. The more humid the air, the closer the air is to saturation, and less evaporation can occur.
The speed at which air flows over the surface of water affects the rate at which the water evaporates. As the wind blows, it sweeps away airborne water particles that are in the air. The humidity of the air in the region of this evaporation is reduced, which allows more water molecules to dissipate into the air hence evaporation increases as speed of wind increases.
