The amount of percipitation that hits the earth as a liquid called?
ground water
What is the difference between hailstorm and ice storm?
A hailstorm is when the precipitation is composed of ice lumps. An ice storm is when the precipitation is freezing rain. The water stays liquid until when it hits the ground, and freezes where it hits.
What Type of precipitation that hits as a liquid and then freezes instantly when it hits the ground?
Sleet is the type of precipitation that falls as liquid but then freezes instantly upon impact with the ground. This occurs when rain from a warmer layer of air falls through a colder layer near the ground, causing it to freeze before reaching the surface.
Which type of precipitation typically cause the most damage when it hits the ground?
Hail can cause a large amount of damage if it very large.
What does the word precipitation mean in the water cycle?
It means the amount of rain, snow, or any other form of "falling water" that hits different locations on the Earth. When looking at precipitation tallies on maps, one can tell how much rainfall or snowfall specific regions see on a yearly basis.
What do Nimbus clouds produce?
Nimbus clouds usually produce precipitation. When this precipitation hits the surface of the earth, it can appear as hail, snow, hail, and rain.
What type of precipitation melts on its way to the ground and stays a liquid drop of water as it hits the above freezing ground?
This type of precipitation is known as sleet. Sleet forms when snowflakes partially melt as they fall through a warmer layer of air, then refreeze into ice pellets before reaching the ground.
Does Venus's have any kind of liquid?
Venus does have liquid alike mars because when the earth rotates it hits a cold spot and because the sun is so big it doesn't get any feed from the sun.
What type of precipitation melts before it hits the ground?
snow/rain
What precipitation is falling at degrees Celsius?
At or below zero degrees C, the precipitation could be snow, hail, sleet, or graupel. (Graupel is formed when a snowflake hits a droplet of supercooled water which freezes around it. More like tiny slushballs than hail.) Above 0C, the precipitation is probably liquid water, or rain.
Does the Moon's shape change or does how you see it change?
What changes from days to day is the amount of sunlight we see on the moon. As the moon orbits the earth and the earth orbits the sun, the sun hits the moon at a different angle in relation to the earth.
