I assume you mean the bubble-ish look when it sits on leaves or grass. This is caused by the hydrophobic nature of the surface of leaves, blades, or needles.
This same affect appears on freshly-waxed cars because the wax repells water. Same for lumber that has been treated with a protectant.
A sphere, actually a sphere is wrong, its more of a teardrop shape....
Yes, the goddess of dew was Hersê or Ersa, daughter of Zeus and Selene.
The shape of a hot air balloon, typically a rounded teardrop shape, allows it to trap and contain heated air for lift. The larger surface area at the bottom helps generate more lift due to the pressure difference with the surrounding air. A streamlined shape also minimizes air resistance during flight.
A teardrop is the most aerodynamically effective shape for a rocket travelling through the atmosphere. From an engineering standpoint, a cylindrical shape accommodates compressed gas cylinders (fuel and oxygen) most efficiently. For a rocket operating outside the atmosphere, shape is irrelevant because it will not encounter drag no matter how un-aerodynamic the shape.
dew point
The teardrop shape of dew on a plant is primarily due to surface tension. Water molecules are attracted to each other, creating a cohesive force that pulls them into a shape with minimal surface area. This shape is a spherical cap, which appears teardrop-like as it rests on the surface of the plant, balancing gravitational forces and surface tension. The curvature also helps to prevent the dew from easily rolling off the leaf.
Sort of a teardrop shape.
A teardrop shape?
The shape that typically has the least drag force is a teardrop shape. This shape is designed to minimize resistance and improve aerodynamics, making it ideal for reducing drag force.
Yes for instance a dipole will have a doughnut shape field and a directional like a yagie will have a long teardrop shape field at the front end and a shorter teardrop field at the rear and some smaler fields sideways and a parabolic disc wil have a very long teardrop shape field
The shape is called the teardrop shape!In 2-dimensions, its parametric equation isx = sin(t)*[sin(t/2)]^my = cos(t) for -pi < t < piThe integer constant, m, changes the shape of the teardrop. At m = 0 the shape is a circle and as m increases the shape gets a pointier the top. m = 3 is about right.The 3-d version is obtained by rotating this shape about the y axis.
A domesticated hedgehog should have a teardrop shape when viewed from both the sides and top.
In its conventional form, of a circular shape with tapering sides, NO.
While each seed can vary, most apple seeds are in the shape of a teardrop.
Long legs, teardrop shape, beady eyes, dish ears, quills over back.

The most aerodynamic shape to minimize air resistance is a teardrop shape.
