Question

Clouds and weather phenomenon occur in the Troposphere but some clouds are found in the Mesosphere. Why?

विकल्प

• Meteoric dust particles reflect sunlight causing wispy clouds.

• Some water particles reach the Mesosphere to form clouds.

• Ions from the ionosphere deflect sunlight giving the impression of clouds.

• None of the above.

Answer 1

Meteoric dust particles reflect sunlight causing wispy clouds.

Explanation:

In the Mesosphere, noctilucent clouds can form when water vapor condenses around meteoric dust particles. These clouds reflect sunlight and appear wispy and luminous, even after sunset.
