How do water droplets falling out of a thundercloud get bigger as they fall towards the earth's surface?
they get bigger because the water droplets are cold and there is also water vapour in the air which is hotand when they meet the water vapour changes back to water droplets which then combine with the water droplets falling from the thunder cloud!!
Why is rain in droplets?
due to the wind blow of air water fall discontineus form ,due to surface tension and drag forces of air causes as water droplets
What are Droplets that become so large and heavy that they can no longer stay up in the air fall to earth's surface?
they are droplets of water ( the water that drops from clouds are 0.02 mm an average rain drop is 2 mm ) or they are droplets of ice (like hail)
Why water droplets are formed on surface of gas cylinder?
They condense in the time period because of evaporation, therefore trapping the water vapor inside the glass and when there are enough vapor, like a cloud with rain, the water starts to form droplets and fall downward.
Large water droplets that fall out of clouds?
rain
What is it called when water droplets fall to the earth?
condensation
What is the shape of water droplets floating on air?
All water droplets in the air is different just like when they fall down.
What forms of energy does the water droplets in the clouds gain and lose when they fall from the clouds to the surface of the earth?
i'v got a new code for blingo it is H6FJNA9D8Y9W
Why mosquito float on the surface of water?
Due to the property of surface tension water surface would act as a stretched membrane. So water skaters, mosquitoes could easily walk on the surface. If oil is mixed with water then surface tension would fall and mosquito cannot breed. That is why we sprinkle oil in fine droplets on stagnant water
What are droplets that fall from the sky?
airRain are water droplets that fall from the sky.If it is very cold, or there are layers of vary cold air that the rain passes through on the way down, the water droplets can become snow or balls of hail.
Why do cloud droplets not fall to the earth's surface as soon as they are formed?
The surface area to volume ratio of cloud droplets is very high, which results in an extremely slow terminal velocity. Such droplets are easily held aloft even by very weak air currents. Even if the droplets to start to fall, they will evaporate quickly in the unsaturated air below the clouds.
What makes a water drop round instead of flat?
A water drop is a perfect sphere. A sphere is the geometrical shape that has the smallest surface area for its volume. The drop takes this shape because water molecules tend to stick to each other.
