this is called condensation in the water cycle it forms water droplet because when the liquid turns into gas the particles move and when they spread apart and float away some get stuck on the sides of the glass cup. Then with enough of the gas particles come together turning it into droplets and goes back into water to do it all over again.

This is due to condensation of water vapors present in the atmosphere...... As soon as they strike the cold glass, their temperature decreases, due to which there is a change in the state of matter from gas to liquid.....

What are the sticky water looking droplets on the back of the leaves of the leaves of a money tree?
I have this same problem, sappy-stick water droplets form on the back of the leaves and they die within a few days. Any advice?
What temperature does steam condense?
When water reaches boiling, it becomes steam. Once the water cools down, typically below 100 degrees Fahrenheit, it will begin to form water droplets or condensation.
How is water recycled in our environment?
Via the water cycle. Water is evaporated from the sea (and land) and rises in the warm air. At the air rises it cools and the evaporated moisture condenses to form clouds. Eventually the droplets coalesce to form raindrops and fall as rain or snow.
What are phospholipids that tend to form tiny droplets with hydrophobic tails buried inside called?
micelles
When a water vapor goes from a cloud to a plant what is this called?
Low clouds can deposit water vapor on a plant by the mechanism of condensation. In this circumstance, the plant is cool enough to cause moisture (water vapor) in the air that comes in contact with the plant to lose enough energy to condense out and form little droplets.
Would droplets of water form on the outside of a glass cup?
yes.
How can water droplets form without rain?
Fog and dew also consist of water droplets. You will also notice water condensing on the outside of a glass of a cold beverage.
Why would droplets of water form on the outside of the glass?
The effect is called Condensation You can look this up easily.
Why a glass of ice water often has water droplets which form on the outside while a hot cup of tea or soup does not?
the main reason is condensation of water vapour in the air to water droplets
Why does the outside of a glass of iced tea some times get moist?
The cold glass cools the air surrounding the glass. This in turn condenses water vapor in the air such that little water droplets form around the surface of the glass. These droplets are what you recognize as being moist :)
What is the name of the process that causes the droplets to form to the outside of the glass?
Condensation
What is the name of the process that causes droplets to form on the outside of the glass?
Condensation
How can the formation of water droplets on the outside of a cold glass on a hot day serve as a model for cloud formation?
As the moist air rises, water vapor condenses and clouds form. Clouds are made of tiny droplets of liquid water or ice.

Why would droplets of water form on the outside of a cup?
rain
Why didn't the same thing happen to the glass filled with warm water?
Water droplets form when the water vapor cools. The cooling causes it to condense into water. A warm glass does not cause cooling or condensation, so no water droplets.
Why would drophlets of water form on the outside of a glass cup?
Assuming the glass cup held a cold liquid, the air closest to the cup will be colder than the surrounding air, causing water vapour in the air to condense into liquid water droplets.
