Clear = When you completely understand something, you understand 100%.
Clarify is to make something clear. If something is not clear, you can clarify by adding extra information to make it clear.

To clear something is like clearing the table so that the table has more space. And to clarify something is like finally understanding what you misunderstood. So the difference is that to clear something is more of physical objects and to clarify is more of a more better understanding of an idea
