Gravity pulls down on all air masses, including ones that contain clouds. But the cooler air masses are closer to the ground because they are denser (contain more molecules per volume) and displace the warmer air, which in effect rises. This warm air contains the water vapor that forms cloud droplets as it rises and cools. Eventually much of the cloud's water will condense into drops and fall back as rain.
What else can I help you with?
Why doesnt the moon have enough gravity on it to pull us down?
It does. Astronauts on the moon can jump higher than they do on Earth but they still come back down. The moon's gravity is weaker than Earth's because the moon has less mass.
What is the pull of earth on you called?
The pull of Earth on you is called gravity. Gravity is the force that attracts objects with mass towards each other.
Why clouds not fall?
Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals that are suspended in the air. These water droplets are so small and light that the force of air resistance keeps them lifted in the atmosphere. Gravity tries to pull the clouds down, but the upward force of air resistance helps to keep them afloat.
Is downward air motion a way of producing clouds?
It is upward motion that produces clouds - lift air, and it expands (gravity's pull decreases with altitude) and cools (as do all gases when they expand). The moisture content remains the same, however, and once the air cools enough so that it is saturated by its moisture content, clouds will begin to form.
How do clouds defy gravity?
To say clouds defy gravity would be misleading, as they do not defy gravity. However rising air currents keep the clouds in the air. The air currents are stronger than the rate at which gravity makes the rain fall (which is not that fast). Clouds are so light, that even the smallest upward air current can make a clouds stay up. Rain falling is basically when the mass of the drops exceed the air currents.
Why doesnt the force of gravity pull the moon into earth?
because of the power of bacon
What kind of cloud can cause tide?
Clouds do not cause tides. Tides are caused by the pull of the Moon's gravity.
Why can't you fly a model rocket into a cloud?
Gravity will pull it down before the rocket can reach the height where clouds form.
Stars are formed from interstellar clouds because of?
Because of gravity. Only gravity can pull large clouds together with enough force to overcome gas pressure.
What is the pull of gravity on a camera?
the pull of gravity on a camera is its weight
Why do you fote on the moon?
One does not necessarily float on the moon, rather experiences less gravity which in turn doesnt pull you down at the same speed as persay on the earth
Why doesnt the moon have as much gravity on it as the earth?
Gravity is determined by the mass of an object. An object with twice the mass will have twice the gravitational pull. Since the moon is much smaller (has a lot less mass) than earth, the gravity on the moon is less than on earth.
Is gravity a push or a pull factor?
Gravity is a pull from the earths core. it is known as a "force"
The measure of the pull of gravity?
Weight is the measure of the pull of gravity. Weight is the mass of an object and can be measured by using a scale.
What is pull on earth on you?
I think that's gravity. Gravity is the pull of a celestial body on other things.
What is the second greatest source of gravity in space?
Gravity doesnt have a source.
Is the pull of gravity a verb phrase?
No, 'the pull of gravity' is a nominal phrase. Notice that the word 'pull' acts as a noun, not a verb in this sentence.
