They become hail.
If they freeze on the way to hitting the earths surface, they are called sleet. You can tell the difference between hail (which freezes before it leaves the cloud) is that sleet bounces when it hits the ground. You are talking about weather, right?
Hail is formed (frozen rain drops).
These are called graupel or soft hail. Graupel forms when supercooled water droplets in a thunderstorm freeze on contact with ice nuclei, creating layered ice pellets. Graupel is typically smaller and softer than hailstones.
Depending on the temperature, water drops that fall when the temperature is below freezing can become sleet, ice, or snow.
Apply 1 to 2 drops
Dew
Hail forms when water drops freeze in layers around small nuclei of ice as they are carried up and down in strong updrafts within thunderstorms. The process of repeated freezing and melting of the water droplets contributes to the growth of hailstones.
Snow or sleet or hail.
because they are frozen rain drops
Droplets and rain drops
Droplets and rain drops
Hail is created when supercooled water drops come in contact with strong winds from thunderstorms. The water is pushed into higher altitudes where it freezes. It then falls to the ground as hail before it melts back to rain.
yes
The water molecules expand when the temp. drops.
hail
Not always - it depends on the air temperature, wind - and the type of cloud. Hail is frozen water drops - that have been held in a cloud long enough to form multiple layers of ice around them. The hail 'stones' stay in the cloud until they become too heavy for air currents to keep them in the sky - and gravity takes over.
The sentence "frozen drops of rain" could be either non-fiction or fiction, depending on the context in which it is used. Non-fiction would refer to actual frozen raindrops that exist in nature, while fiction could describe a creative or imaginative scenario involving frozen rain.
