What is happening in the air when a funnel cloud is forming?
Air is being pulled upward int a rotating vortex with a low pressure center. The low pressure produces a temperature drop, causing moisture in the air to condense.
What happen to make tornadoes visible?
There are two main factors. First, moisture in the air condenses as a result of decompression inside a tornado, producing the visible funnel cloud. Second, a tornado's winds lift dirt and debris into the air, forming a debris cloud or dust whirl
In the air it is called a cloud what is it called on the ground?
fog or mist!well DER peopleNa....Tha real answer scientifically is that Fog is a Stratus cloud that forms near the ground..
When air is cooled to the dew point near the ground it is forms stratus cloud called?
fog
How does a wall cloud form?
A wall cloud forms when the rotating updraft of a supercell thunderstorm, called a mesocyclone, draws in moist air and causes the moisture to condense. The wall cloud marks the strongest part of the mesocyclone.
What is a tornado forming in the air?
A tornadic vortex that is developing but has not yet reached the ground is called a funnel cloud.
When does the water vapor become clouds?
When the water vapour has condensed in the air forming cloud
Where will the air go if it is leaked in space?
The air will simply spread out in space, eventually forming an extremely diffuse cloud.
At what temperature does cumulonimbus clouds form?
It depends on the temperature of the air around the cloud. A cumulus cloud is formed by warm air rising into a layer of cooler air, so the base of the cloud will be warmer and the air will get colder toward the top of the cloud. If water vapor condenses out of the air as it rises in the cloud, this will warm up the air in the middle of the cloud.
In the air it is called a cloud but on the groung it is called what?
fog
What is Warm air may push over cold air and form cloud called?
funnel cloud
What conditions are required for cloud formation?
For clouds to form the air has to be unstable, meaning that the air at the surface is warmer than the air above. So when the air rises it hits a level called the Lifting Condensation Level. If the air rises to this point it then can start to condense on particles in the sky forming clouds.
What is a water drops suspended in air called?
Cloud
What are air masses forming over land called?
continental air masses
What is the rainfall called when hot air rises up into the cloud and cold air falls in result of it?
That is called: "Precipitation"
Why do depressions bring cloud and rain?
Depression's bring cloud and rain because warm air meets cold air and its called a 'front'. Along the front there will be cloud and then sometimes rain.
In the air its called cloud but on the ground it is called f?
fog or mist
