The surface area to volume ratio of cloud droplets is very high, which results in an extremely slow terminal velocity. Such droplets are easily held aloft even by very weak air currents. Even if the droplets to start to fall, they will evaporate quickly in the unsaturated air below the clouds.

What is another name for a cloud that forms on the earths surface?
A cloud that forms on the earth's surface is often referred to as fog. Fog is a type of low-lying cloud that consists of water droplets suspended in the air near the ground.
How does condensation nuclei help clouds form?
The condensation nuclei helps clouds form by adding more CNN to a cloud. This encourages precipitation. The more CNN, the more droplets are formed.
What type of cloud has fog?
Fog is just a cloud that is low enough to touch the earth's surface. Yea fog is a cloud.
What do you call a large concentration of tiny water droplets?
A large concentration of tiny water droplets is called a cloud. Clouds are formed from water vapor that condense into clouds.
Is it true that cloud condenses when rain is formed?
No, clouds are little droplets of liquid water (or ice). Those small droplets or ice crystals grow together to become rain drops or snow or hail etc.
What is another name for a cloud that forms on the earths surface?
A cloud that forms on the earth's surface is often referred to as fog. Fog is a type of low-lying cloud that consists of water droplets suspended in the air near the ground.
Why is Venus called cloud planet?
The surface is not visible from space, only clouds (formed mainly by droplets of sulfuric acid).
When cloud droplets collect and freeze around an ice crystal over and over what happens?
a cloud is formed
Why don't cloud droplets fall to Earth as soon as they are formed?
droplets need to get big and heavy before they fall
A cloud on the earths surface?
A cloud on Earth's surface is a fog. Fog occurs when the air near the ground cools to its dew point, causing water vapor to condense into tiny water droplets. This reduces visibility and can affect travel and daily activities.
What rotates between a rain cloud and earths surface?
Precipitatio
How does condensation nuclei help clouds form?
The condensation nuclei helps clouds form by adding more CNN to a cloud. This encourages precipitation. The more CNN, the more droplets are formed.
Solid particles around which cloud droplets form?
Aerosols, such as dust, smoke, or pollution particles, act as nuclei for cloud droplets to form around in the atmosphere. These solid particles provide a surface for water vapor to condense onto, leading to the formation of cloud droplets.
What type of cloud has fog?
Fog is just a cloud that is low enough to touch the earth's surface. Yea fog is a cloud.
Is a clould a part of earths atmosphere?
A cloud is a collection of water droplets that float and collect in the Troposphere and occasionally in the lower portion of the Stratosphere.
Will the presence of dust in the air expedite or slow cloud formation?
The presence of dust in the air can expedite cloud formation by providing a surface for water droplets to condense and form cloud droplets around. Dust particles act as cloud condensation nuclei, which help water vapor in the air to condense into clouds.
What is the difference between cloud and mist?
Mist of fog is the condensed form of water droplets formed just above the surface of the earth. Clouds are condensed form of atmospheric moisture consisting of small water droplets or tiny ice crystals. These r formed in the troposphere
