Option 2 : D
The correct answer is D.
- Clouds are created when water gets heated up, evaporates, and condenses in the upper atmosphere.
- The condensed form of water in the atmosphere is due to the low temperature.
- As clouds have less density and high volume as compared to the air surrounding them, so the clouds experience a high buoyancy force from the surrounding air, which supports the balance of the weight of the clouds.
- Buoyancy is the force due to all the air molecules below the cloud resisting any downward motion.
- Therefore, the clouds float in the atmosphere because of their low density.
- The objects which have less density experience high buoyancy force.
