Is the ground up or down?

The ground is typically considered down in relation to our standing position.


What do you feel when there is a tremor?

We could the ground shaking and the things writhing vigorously. Sometimes or rather, the things would drop from the ceiling, cascade down to the ground and might also topple over.


How are precipitation evaporation and ground water involved with the water cycle?

It returns atmospheric water back to the ground. Without precipitation there would be no water cycle, all the water would run down the rivers and into the seas then the rivers would dry up with no fresh water from precipitation.


Where do the water vapors go when they rise up in the air?

Depending on weather conditions, it can stay in the air making it feel humid and muggy; it can form a fog close to the ground or it can form clouds higher in the sky and becomes rain or snow. Sometimes it condenses on the surface as dew or freezes on the surface as frost. Some remain as vapor, some condense out as water droplets, some freeze out as tiny ice crystals. When enough condenses out as water droplets within a certain space they form clouds. When the water droplets in the clouds merge and grow large enough they fall as rain. When enough freezes out as ice crystals within a certain space they form ice clouds (e.g. the high altitude cirrus clouds). etc.


What process brings water down on earth?

The process that brings water down on Earth is called precipitation. This occurs when water droplets or ice crystals in clouds become too heavy to remain suspended and fall to the ground as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.

Lighting strikes in which direction?

Lightning typically comes from the elctrical static in clouds. However it can also come up from the ground and intermingle with a bolt of lightning coming down from the clouds. But mostly from the clouds above.Sandman


Because of their shape when seen from the ground tornadoes are sometimes called?

Funnel clouds


Does electricity start from the ground and go up or does it start from the clouds and go down?

i think that electricity starts from the ground


Why don't clouds fall back down to the ground?

Clouds do not fall back down to the ground because they are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that are lighter than the air around them. These droplets and crystals are constantly moving and being carried by air currents, which keeps the clouds suspended in the sky.


Does lightning start from the ground and go up or start from the clouds and go down?

There are three types of lightening, There is Ground-to-cloud, Cloud-to-ground and cloud-to-cloud.


What will happen when you touch the clouds?

it's the same as fog, nothing would happen. In fact, when clouds come down it makes fog.


How does rain develope?

the water on the ground turns into water vapor, then it rises to the clouds. once the clouds get to heavy they turn grayish black and relese the water (rain).


How do tornadoes come down to the ground?

Tornadoes form when warm, moist air at the surface rises and meets cooler, drier air aloft. This creates spinning columns of air called mesocyclones, which can then be funneled downward to the ground by surrounding updrafts and downdrafts within a thunderstorm.


Why does gravity keep us down on the ground and not up in the clouds?

It is pulling us toward the center of the earth. We are lucky we live on Earth and no some planet with a weak gravity where we can fly in the clouds.


What makes freezing water vapor inside clouds?

When the air temperature in the cloud decreases below the freezing point of water vapor, the water vapor molecules slow down and come together to form ice crystals. This process is called nucleation, where the vapor turns into tiny particles of ice, which then grow into larger ice crystals to form clouds.


What is funnel clouds that last up to 15 minutes?

Funnel clouds are rotating columns of air that extend downward from a thunderstorm cloud but do not touch the ground. These clouds can develop into tornadoes if they reach the ground. If a funnel cloud lasts for up to 15 minutes, it could indicate a higher likelihood of it touching down and becoming a tornado.


Does spring water come from a spring in the ground?

It is precipitation that fell on the ground and percolated down to a layer of rock.
