At which point will a cloud form?
when the temperature of the rising air falls below the dew point
What causes a cumulus cloud?
Rising hot air and water condensing out of that air.
What two things form a cloud?
Air and water form a cloud.
How does the Cumulonimbus cloud form in a tornado?
Cumilonimbus clouds do not form in tornadoes; tornadoes formin in cumulonimbus clouds. A cumulonimbus cloud forms when a warm, moist pocket of air rises and the moisture in it condenses, releasing heat that keeps the air rising. This is what drives any thunderstorm. Under the right conditions, the storm my start to rotate, and this rotation may eventually lead to the formation of a tornado.
What kind of clouds form where the warm air rising?
Startus
Which clouds form from rising currents of warm air?
Cumulus cloud.
At which point will a cloud form?
when the temperature of the rising air falls below the dew point
What is a vortex air rising into a cloud?
This is a tornado.
What is a vortex of air rising into a cloud?
tornado
What is a vortex of air that is rising into a cloud?
A tornado
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.
What forms a vortex?
A vortex is form when the whirling motion of the cloud vortex results from a rapid downdraft of cold air replacing rising hot air.
What causes a cumulus cloud?
Rising hot air and water condensing out of that air.
In a cumulonimbus cloud, what keeps the rising air inside the cloud warmer and less dense than the air around it?
The heat from condensation makes the rising air warmer and stay less dense than the air around it.
Why thunderstorms usually form on warm day?
When the rising warm air reaches it's dew point, the water vapor in the air condenses and forms cumulus clouds. If the atmosphere is extremely unstable, the warm air will continue to rise, which causes the cloud to grow in to a dark, cumulonimbus cloud. This cloud is a thunderstorm cloud.
A vortex of air rising into a cloud?

In a cumulonimbus cloud what keeps the rising air inside the cloud warmer and less dense than the air around it?
Heat from the sun
