How can the same cumulonimbus cloud produce rain or hail?
A cumulonimbus cloud can produce rain or hail depending on the strength of updrafts within the cloud. If the updrafts are strong enough to carry water droplets high into the cloud where they freeze, hailstones may form. If the updrafts are not as strong, the water droplets will fall as rain.
What type of precipitation is formed in a cloud?
hail,rain,sleeet,snow
What falls from cumulonimbus?
Depending on the temperature and other conditions, it could be rain, snow or hail. But if the question is about what falls from cumulonimbus that most likely wouldn't fall from other cloud formations, then the answer would be hail. It's the vertical activity that gives the cumulonimbus cloud its distinctive shape, and it's the vertical activity that forms hail...especially large hail stones.
What has to take place in the condensation step of the water cycle for snow or hail to fall instead of rain?
In the condensation step that leads to snow or hail, the temperature needs to be very low, usually below freezing. This causes the water vapor to condense into ice crystals or supercooled water droplets. These frozen particles then grow and combine in the cloud until they are heavy enough to fall as snow or hail, instead of rain.
What are frozen drps of rain that fall as pellets of ice in winter?
The word you are looking for is 'hail'
When drops of water in a cloud become heavy enough they fall to Earth as?
Rain or if it freezes, hail.
How can the same cumulonimbus cloud produce rain or hail?

When does a cloud produce?
rain hail sleet
How can the same cumulonimbus cloud produce rain and hail?
Inside a cumulonimbus cloud, there are updrafts that carry water droplets to colder altitudes where they freeze into hailstones. These hailstones can grow as they move up and down in the cloud, eventually becoming heavy enough to fall to the ground as hail. At the same time, the cloud produces rain from the water droplets that don't freeze into hailstones and are too heavy to remain in the cloud.
When water droplets in a cloud combine become too heavy and fall to the ground as rain snow sleet or hail are expriencing?
precipitation
What Cloud droplets combine and grow large enough to fall to earth?
Precipitation. Usually it is rain, but it could be sleet, snow, or hail.
How can a cloud produce both hail and rain?
the rain droplets can fall and some of them could be blown upward and freeze because of the wind
What is a heavy water that fall out of the cloud?
it is call hail
How can rain and hail fall from the same cumulonimbus cloud?
The clouds usually are fairly restricted in height, but can sometimes extend upwards to much higher altitudes when they become known as cumulonimbus clouds. These are very large and can extend to 12000 metres or higher. At base level, the cloud is made up of water droplets but the top of the cloud is made up of ice crystals. Cumulonimbus produce severe weather such as heavy rain, hail, thunderstorms and tornadoes.
When moisture in a cloud is heavy enough to fall back on earth it is called?
When moisture in a cloud is heavy enough to fall back on earth, it is called precipitation. This can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on the atmospheric conditions.
What moisture in a cloud is heavy enough to fall back to Earth is called?
The moisture in a cloud that is heavy enough to fall back to Earth is called precipitation. This can take the form of rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on the conditions in the atmosphere.
When water falls from a cloud what forms can it take?
Rain, snow, or hail.
