What is a precipatation that freezing on its way o earth?
Freezing precipitation is called sleet or freezing rain.
Sleet is a physical or chemical change?
Sleet is a physical change because it is the result of rain freezing as it falls through a layer of cold air near the ground. The change from rain to sleet does not involve a chemical reaction, but rather a change in state from liquid to solid.
Raindrops that pass through a layer of freezing air near the ground become?
sleet or freezing rain, depending on the temperature profile. If the raindrops freeze completely into ice pellets before hitting the ground, it is sleet. If the raindrops freeze upon impact with surfaces at or below freezing, it is freezing rain.
What type of precipitation occurs when it is above freezing?
Sleet
How are sleet and freezing similar?
.... They're both cold
How is freezing rain and sleet similar to each other?
Freezing rain and sleet are the same thing if you leave it up to the basics. Both of them are tiny bits of ice falling from the clouds.
If the temperature is below freezing does rain fall?
It becomes sleet...
What conditions are required for it to sleet?
ground temperature below freezing, and air temperature slightly above freezing.
What term describe rain that freeze when it hit the earth surface?
Freezing rain Sleet
When drops of water are form on the cold day what is happening?
sleet
What is three types of precipitation?
The 4 main precipitaions are rain, hail, sleek and snow
Falling rain passes through a layer of freezing air and forms what?
Falling rain that passes through a layer of freezing air forms sleet or freezing rain, depending on the temperature profile. Sleet occurs when rain partially freezes into ice pellets before reaching the ground, while freezing rain falls as liquid and then freezes on contact with surfaces, creating a layer of ice.
