The interstellar clouds called molecular clouds are?
the cool clouds in which stars form.
Why clouds form over mountains?
As air blows toward mountains, it is forced to rise and cool
Why do clouds form as the air rises?
As air rises it becomes decompressed, which causes it to cool. This cooling can cause water vapor to condense, forming clouds.
Where does lenticular clouds form?
Lenticular clouds generally form in mountainous regions. In these areas, there can be pockets of low pressure in the sky. When air encounters these low-pressure regions, it expands. If the air cools enough, it will condense to form lenticular clouds. The name "lenticular" actually means lens-shaped, because these clouds usually form an oval.
Why do clouds form before rain?
Clouds form when water vapor condenses into tiny liquid droplets. If enough condensation occurs in a cloud then some of the droplets will grow bigger and fall as rain.
The interstellar clouds called molecular clouds are?
the cool clouds in which stars form.
Why do clouds form above chimneys?
clouds form above chimneys as the warm air mixes with the cool air
Why do clouds form behind a moving cold front?
They form from behind the moving cold front because the warm air condenses quickly producing clouds, rain, and stormy weather.
What can air water and sun form?
They can form clouds because when the sun evaporates water, and then, the air makes the water cool and that's how they become clouds!
Can cirrus clouds form snow?
Cirrus clouds are high enough to be at a low enough temperature for the water droplets to form into ice crystals. However, Cirrus clouds are not precipitation clouds, so no snow or rain can fall from them. The clouds that can cause snow to fall in the right conditions are Nimbostratus and Cumulonimbus clouds.
What must be present so clouds can form?
Cool air and dust Particles
What will most likely happen as warm air begins to cool and clouds form?
RAIN
What happens when water vapor condenses out at the cool tops of convection cells?
clouds form
Why clouds form over mountains?
As air blows toward mountains, it is forced to rise and cool
Why do clouds form as the air rises?
As air rises it becomes decompressed, which causes it to cool. This cooling can cause water vapor to condense, forming clouds.
Why does air near the surface have to be moist in order for thunderstorms to form?
If there isn't enough moisture, then no clouds will form.
