उत्तर
The frost can seriously damage the leaves and fruit of plants. When a farmer waters his fields, during, night, this water gives large amount of heat energy, because 1 g of water will liberate 4.2 J of energy for every 1°C fall in temperature. Thus, the air around the field is saturated with heat energy and its temperature does not fall below 0°C. Thus, no frost is formed.
