"clear up" is formally used to talk about weather, specifically when bad weather becomes good.
For Example:
"It was raining all morning, but I'm glad the weather cleared up. It's so sunny now!
"clear up" informally means "to clarify"
For example:
"I was confused, but you explained the instructions really well. Thanks for clearing that up for me!"
"Spell out" informally means "to explain" but it's a bit insulting.
When you say this, it implies that the person you're speaking to is too stupid to understand what you're saying, so you have to "spell" each letter out for them.
Like a child learning to write their words and letters.
For Example:
"Hey Sarah, when are we going out for a dinner date?"
"Let me spell this out for you; I'm not interested!"
Another Example:
"Are you sure we're going the right way?"
"Do I have to spell it out for you? We're totally lost!"
"set out" can mean different things depending on context.
In older English, it often meant to leave, so today you'll often hear it used when talking about older stories.
"Bilbo Baggins set out on a quest to return the One Ring to Mordor."
"The pirates set out on a course for adventure!"
"The knights set out to find the Holy Grail."
In common everyday English, I hear it and use it most often when I prepare a table for a meal:
"Can you set out the forks, knives, and plates for dinner tonight?"
"Sure! Do I have to set out napkins as well?"
