What else can I help you with?
Where does precipitation in the water cycle occur?
It means it comes down in a form of rain, sleet,hale,snow,etc;
What is the part of the water cycle in which water as a vapor cools and turns into liquid water?
The process you are referring to is called condensation. When water vapor cools down, it transitions from a gaseous state back into liquid form. This is a crucial step in the water cycle where clouds are formed.
What is the coming down of water as rain or snow?
Precipitation is the term used to describe the process of water coming down as rain or snow from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface. This can occur in various forms such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail depending on temperature and atmospheric conditions.
What is the precipitation that comes down during an Thunderstorm?
usually rain, but sleet, hail, or snow are also possible depending on the temperature profile in the clouds and strength of updrafts.
When you look outside and it raining the water falling down is in what stage of the water cycle?
When you see rain falling from the sky, that water is in the "precipitation" stage of the water cycle. This means that the water vapor in the atmosphere has cooled and condensed into liquid water droplets, which then fall to the ground as rain.
What are forms of water that comes down on earth including rain show hail etc?
Precipitation is the term used to describe forms of water that come down to Earth, including rain, snow, sleet, and hail. Rain is liquid water falling from clouds, while snow is frozen water crystals. Sleet is a mixture of rain and snow, and hail is solid balls or lumps of ice that form in thunderstorms.
What are the two main mechanisms that the planet earth uses to balance the water that goes up with the water that comes down over the earth?
The two main mechanisms are precipitation, which brings water down to Earth in the form of rain, snow, etc., and evaporation, which sends water back up into the atmosphere as water vapor. This continuous cycle of water movement is known as the water cycle.
What do you call the process of water from the atmosphere going down to earth?
that process is called precipitation...............
When a change in state in which water returns to earth's surface and changes from a vapor to a liquid is?
This change is known as condensation. It occurs when water vapor in the air cools down and transforms into liquid water droplets, which can then fall back to the earth's surface as precipitation. Condensation is a key process in the water cycle.
What is it called when water falls from the clouds down to earth's surface?
It is called precipitation.
Does rainfall include snowfall?
No. However, the word "precipitation" does include different forms of water falling down. I believe the word was invented for this purpose - to indicate the total amount of water that falls down, liquid or otherwise.No. However, the word "precipitation" does include different forms of water falling down.

In the water cycle the process by which water vapor cools down and changes to liquid water is called?
precipitation
In what form do Water vapor droplets form clouds and Earth's gravity pulls the moisture to the surface?
Water vapor droplets form clouds through condensation, where the vapor cools and transforms into liquid water. Earth's gravity then pulls this moisture down to the surface as precipitation, such as rain or snow.
What are the essential steps of the water cycle?
evaporation: when the water turns into gas and goes up to the clouds condensation: the water in the clouds turn into liquid precipitation: the water comes down as rain, snow, hail, sleet etc.
What do you call the process of water from the atmosphere going down the earth?
that process is called precipitation...............
How can water be changed from a gas to a liquid?
Condensation. The water vapor goes up into the sky forming clouds. When the clouds become too heavy with vapor, the water falls back down to earth as precipitation.
In the water cycle does water move from the sun to the earth?
No. In the water cycle, water comes down to the ground as precipitation. Precipitation is rain, snow, sleet, or hail. Then, the water is either absorbed by plants, which is called transpiration, or is absorbed into the ground, which is called runoff. After that, the water changes into a gas, which is called evaporation. Once it is in the sky, it cools down and forms a cloud. This step is called condensation. Then, it starts all over again. Precipitation, runoff, transpiration, evaporation, condensation, precipitation, etc.
