What else can I help you with?
Visible masses if tiny water droplets above Earth's surface?
The tiny water droplets in the sky form clouds.
If Water is heavier than air so why do clouds stay up in the sky?
Because all the droplets haven't come together yet so it isn't as heavy as water yet. Water vapor (a gas) rises up until it gets cool enough to turn to droplets. These droplets are clouds in all their amazing forms.
Why do clouds form before rain?
Clouds form when water vapor condenses into tiny liquid droplets. If enough condensation occurs in a cloud then some of the droplets will grow bigger and fall as rain.
Why does the Earth have rainbows?
Rainbows are caused by the refraction, reflection, and dispersion of light in water droplets in the Earth's atmosphere. When sunlight hits the water droplets at a specific angle, it is refracted, reflected inside the droplet, and then dispersed into its component colors, creating the rainbow effect that we see.
What are floating water droplets called?
Floating water droplets are called mist or spray. They are tiny droplets of water suspended in the air.
What are water droplets in the clouds are pulled back to earth by?
Water droplets in clouds are pulled back to Earth by gravity. As they grow larger and heavier, they fall to the ground as precipitation in the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
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!!
What is it called when water droplets fall to the earth?
When water droplets fall to the earth, it is called rain.
What is the process called when the tiny droplets come together and form bigger drops and fall to earth?
The process is called coalescence, where smaller water droplets in clouds collide and merge together to form larger droplets. When these droplets become heavy enough, they fall to the ground as precipitation, such as rain or snow.
Does clouds have water droplets?
By definition, a cloud is microscopic water droplets. Brought down to earth level, a cloud is called "fog" - which is the same thing: microscopic water droplets.
Visible masses if tiny water droplets above Earth's surface?
The tiny water droplets in the sky form clouds.
What occurs when water droplets in the air become heavier than the air can hold?
When water droplets in the air become heavier than the air can hold, they fall to the ground as precipitation. This can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on the temperature and atmospheric conditions.
How do you get tar sand out of the ground?
The oil sands are dug out of the ground with huge shovels and dumped in ...droplets to merge in to bigger water droplets so they can be separated out.
When tiny water droplets fall from the clouds to the earth that is called what?
That is called rain. Rain is formed when water droplets in clouds combine to create larger droplets that fall to the ground due to gravity.
What Fog is droplets of water and not carbon dioxide?
All fog (on Earth).
How does precipitation develop?
Precipitation develops and occurs by the process of collision-coalescence. Collision-coalescence occurs when water droplets collide together to form larger droplets. These droplets get pulled to earth by gravity. Updrafts can send them back up but they will still grow larger and eventually fall to earth. The pure water remains as droplet and can super cool (-20C) below freezing. Ice crystals (super cooled water droplets) act as nucleation sites. The density of water vapor in the air prior to saturation is light and gets heavier as water droplets form. Ice or snow can occur, unless frozen water is warmed as it falls through the atmosphere resulting in rain. Dust and gas particles in the atmopshere can also act as nucleation sites for condensation to form upon. This will help create precipitation that eventually falls to earth due to weight and gravity processes.
What is a large amount of droplets falling to the earth?
A large amount of droplets falling to the earth is called rainfall. It occurs when water vapor in the sky condenses into droplets and falls to the ground due to gravity. Rain is essential for replenishing water sources and supporting plant growth.
