Collision-Coalescence
Coalescenceno its dew point or dewpoint.
When the rain and snow are right the small droplets of water in clouds forms larger droplets and precipitation occurs.
Air holds gaseous water in it called water vapor. When the air cools the water forms into small droplets and we see clouds. When the air cools further these clouds hold larger and larger droplets of water until the large droplets fall as rain. It depends on the climate and temperature How does precipitation occur
One theory explaining how the behavior of individual droplets leads to the formation of clouds is the collision-coalescence process. Droplets suspended in the air will interact with each other, either by colliding and bouncing off each other or by combining to form a larger droplet. Eventually, the droplets become large enough that they fall to the earth as precipitation. The collision-coalescence process does not make up a significant part of cloud formation as water droplets have a relatively high surface tension. Sources: Wikipedia

coalescence when cloud droplets collide, then join together to form a larger droplet in a process
It's called condensation, when water vapor comes in contact with cooler air, or objects, it forms larger droplets.
When tiny droplets cool further they form larger droplets what happens if it becomes too big
When the rain and snow are right the small droplets of water in clouds forms larger droplets and precipitation occurs.
This process is called destructive interference. This occurs when two waves collide, where one is in a trough and one is in a crest. If the waves are both a max amplitude, max crest and max trough, there will be complete destructive interference.
Simple answer: They don't. Clouds ARE water - tiny, tiny droplets of water just like fog. If colder air moves into a cloud, it causes there to be even more water droplets forming. When the droplets get close enough together, they start touching and turning themselves into even larger droplets. Then the "even larger" water droplets touch, and make water drops . . . at some point in this process, the water droplets grow large enough that they are too heavy to stay where they are, and then they fall to the ground. This falling to the ground is what we call, "Rain".
When the _______ and ________ are right, the small droplets of water in clouds form larger droplets and preciptation occurs.
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.
