What is the number of miles per hour that raindrop falls?
60 second it per hour
Does a viewer see a single color or a spectrum of colors coming from a single faraway raindrop?
Although a wide spectrum of colors are being refracted from a single raindrop, and observer is in a position to see only a single color from any one drop.
How many atoms are in a raindrop?
Each pure water drop is composed of only two elements: hydrogen and oxygen. Most drinking water is composed of other compounds or elements to make it cleaner and safer to drink.
Where does the rainbow gets its colors?
An individual raindrop has a different shape and consistency than a glass prism, but it affects light in a similar way. When white sunlight hits a collection of raindrops at a fairly low angle, you can see the component colors red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet -- a rainbow. For simplicity's sake, we'll only look at red and violet, the colors of light on the ends of the visible light spectrum. The diagram below shows what happens when the sunlight hits one individual raindrop.When the white light passes from air into the drop of water, the component colors of light slow down to different speeds depending on their frequency. The violet light bends at a relatively sharp angle when it enters the raindrop. At the right-hand side of the drop, some of the light passes back out into the air, and the rest is reflected backward. Some of the reflected light passes out of the left side of the drop, bending as it moves into the air again. In this way, each individual raindrop disperses white sunlight into its component colors. So why do we see wide bands of color, as if different rainy areas were dispersing a different single color? Because we only see one color from each raindrop. You can see how this works in the diagram below.When raindrop A disperses light, only the red light exits at the correct angle to travel to the observer's eyes. The other colored beams exit at a lower angle, so the observer doesn't see them. The sunlight will hit all the surrounding raindrops in the same way, so they will all bounce red light onto the observer. Raindrop B is much lower in the sky, so it doesn't bounce red light to the observer. At its height, the violet light exits at the correct angle to travel to the observer's eye. All the drops surrounding raindrop B bounce light in the same way. The raindrops in between A and B all bounce different colors of light to the observer, so the observer sees the full color spectrum. If you were up above the rain, you would see the rainbow as a full circle, because the light would bounce back from all around you. On the ground, we see the arc of the rainbow that is visible above the horizon. Sometimes you see a double rainbow -- a sharp rainbow with a fainter rainbow on top of it. The fainter rainbow is produced in the same way as the sharper rainbow, but instead of the light reflecting once inside the raindrop, it's reflected twice. As a result of this double reflection, the light exits the raindrop at a different angle, so we see it higher up. If you look carefully, you'll see that the colors in the second rainbow are in the reverse order of the primary rainbow. And that's really all there is to rainbows. Light and water happen to combine in just the right way to paint a beautiful natural picture.
If light traveled at the same speed in raindrops as it does in air could rainbows exist?
No as it is the light refracting (slowing down) through the raindrops. The different colours in the white light travel at different speeds through the raindrop, which causes them to split up into the different colours of the rainbow. Obviously if the light didn't slow down it would continue as white light.
How big was the biggest raindrop?
Approximately half the size of two raindrops. Better answer: Small: 1 mm, Large: 3-4 mm
What chapter did the big raindrop happen in Touching Spirit Bear?
Chapter 9
What is the duration of The Raindrop?
The duration of The Raindrop is 1.8 hours.
Is raindrop one or two words?
"Raindrop" is one word.
When was The Raindrop created?
The Raindrop was created on 2000-02-04.
When was Master Raindrop created?
Master Raindrop was created in 2008.
How do you spell raindrop in Japanese?
Raindrop in Japanese is 雨滴 (uteki).
When was Raindrop Turkish House created?
Raindrop Turkish House was created in 2000.
Is raindrop a noun?
no, it is not
Why are raindrop impressions are preserved in in fine grained sedimentary rock rather than a coarse grained?
because raindrops have small particles and coarse grained sedimentary rocks have big particles so it is easier for raindrop impressions to occur in fine grained sedimentary rocks
How do you find the center of mass of the raindrop?
To find the center of mass of a raindrop, you can calculate it by considering the raindrop as a uniform solid object. For a symmetric raindrop shape, the center of mass will lie at the geometric center. For irregular shapes, you can divide the raindrop into smaller parts, calculate the center of mass for each part, and then find the overall center of mass using these individual centers.
What is at the center of every raindrop?
At the center of every raindrop is a tiny speck of dust or dirt that serves as a nucleation site for water vapor to condense around. This process forms a droplet that eventually grows heavy enough to fall to the ground as rain.
