They look like any other cloud. Clouds are almost all alike. Only the acidic clouds are different (They have acid in them, hens the name).

P.S: Rain drops don't look like water droplets. They look like a blob of water falling.

Is a cloud in the Hydrosphere or Atmosphere?

Because a cloud is water, in gaseous form, it would be considered to be atmosphere. However, when the water vapors in the clouds condense and becomes rain or snow in precipitation, it would be considered to be in the hydrosphere.


How do you form rain?

The clouds floating overhead contain water vapor and cloud droplets, which are small drops of condensed water. These droplets are way too small to fall as precipitation, but they are large enough to form visible clouds. Water is continually evaporating andcondensing in the sky. If you look closely at a cloud you can see some parts disappearing (evaporating) while other parts are growing (condensation). Most of the condensed water in clouds does not fall as precipitation because their fall speed is not large enough to overcome updrafts which support the clouds. For precipitation to happen, first tiny water droplets must condense on even tinier dust, salt, or smoke particles, which act as a nucleus. Water droplets may grow as a result of additional condensation of water vapor when the particles collide. If enough collisions occur to produce a droplet with a fall velocity which exceeds the cloud updraft speed, then it will fall out of the cloud as precipitation. This is not a trivial task since millions of cloud droplets are required to produce a single raindrop. A more efficient mechanism (known as the Bergeron-Findeisen process) for producing a precipitation-sized drop is through a process which leads to the rapid growth of ice crystals at the expense of the water vapor present in a cloud. These crystals may fall as snow, or melt and fall as rain.


What does clouds feel like?

Clouds are composed of water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. While you may not be able to physically touch a cloud, they are soft and fluffy in appearance, often described as feeling light and airy.


What does water look like in space?

In space, water exists in the form of floating droplets or spheres due to the absence of gravity pulling it downwards. It can appear like floating blobs or balls due to surface tension and lack of buoyancy forces acting on it.


What type of job does a cloud have?

A cloud does not have a job, that is the wrong way to look at it. A cloud is the result of a set of physical conditions and processes. A cloud form when air, which has taken up water in the form of a gas, cools to below the dew point for that amount of water content. When this happens the water comes out in the form of fine droplets which form an opaque mist. When this process happens up in the air a cloud is formed when it happen near the ground a mist or fog is formed. The process happens regularly up in the air because the atmosphere is cooler up there and air warmed at the earth surface rises up and cools forming clouds. If the air contains allot of water vapor, the mist droplets stick together and get too heavy to say up and fall to the ground as rain.

Why is the base of a cloud grey?

The base of a cloud can appear grey due to the presence of water droplets or ice crystals, which scatter light in a way that makes them look grey. The thickness of the cloud layer and the angle of sunlight hitting it can also affect the color.


When do clouds produce precipitation and why?

Clouds produce precipitation when the water droplets or ice crystals within the cloud grow to a size that they can no longer be supported by the air currents, causing them to fall to the ground. This occurs when the droplets or crystals collide and combine or when they become heavy enough to overcome the updrafts within the cloud.


What is cirrucumulus?

Cirrucumulus is a type of cloud that occurs at high altitudes ranging from 3 miles to 8 miles. They typical contain ice crystals and look like droplets.


What do water droplet clouds look like?

Water droplet clouds, also known as cumulus clouds, appear as puffy, white clouds with a flat base and a towering, fluffy top. These clouds are formed through the convection of warm air that carries moisture, causing water droplets to condense and form cloud formations in the sky.

Why do clouds look like cottenballs?

Light reflected back from the water droplets scatters all the colours of the rainbow - making the clouds appear white.

What gives clouds their color?

Clouds appear white because they scatter sunlight in all directions, which makes them look bright. The size of the water droplets or ice crystals in the cloud influences the color, with smaller droplets resulting in whiter clouds and larger droplets producing darker clouds. At sunrise or sunset, the sunlight's angle can cause clouds to take on various colors like red, orange, or pink due to the scattering of shorter wavelengths of light.
