Match each event to the stage of the water cycle that it represents

1.rain droplets on the window

2.fog on the bathroom mirror after a hot shower

3. Drying of a wet modded floor

Where would I drag those three at in the picture shown

Answer:

1. Rain droplets on the window - precipitation


2. Fog on the bathroom mirror after a hot shower - condensation


3. Drying of a wet modded floor - evaporation

Step-by-step explanation :

The water cycle describes the cyclic movement of water between the land and the atmosphere.

The water cycle involves many processes such as evaporation, condensation, and precipitation.

1. Evaporation

  • The process of evaporation involves the heating up of water present in various sources and its conversion into gas form.
  • Since drying of wet modded floor involves the conversion of water into gas due to heat, this process is an example of evaporation.

2. Condensation

  • The process of condensation involves the cooling of the evaporated water as it reaches the atmosphere resulting in the formation of clouds.
  • Similarly, after a hot shower, the water cools down on the mirror and forms fog. Thus, this is an example of condensation.

3. Precipitation

  • When too much water has been collected in the clouds they become too heavy to hold water, and thus, the water falls down on the surface of the earth in the form of rain, snow or sleet. This process is known as precipitation.
  • Thus, rain droplets seen on the window is an example of precipitation.
