Is the rain and snow condensation?
Rain and snow are not forms of condensation. Rain is liquid water that falls from clouds, while snow is ice crystals that form in clouds and fall to the ground. Condensation is the process where water vapor in the air turns into liquid water on a surface due to cooling.
Why does rain drops but snow fall?
Raindrops form when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into liquid droplets due to cooling, typically occurring in warmer temperatures. Snow forms when water vapor condenses and freezes into ice crystals in colder temperatures. The different states of precipitation (liquid rain versus solid snow) are a result of the temperature at which the water droplets or ice crystals form and fall from the sky.
What is rain sleet or snow that has lots of acids in it called?
Acid rain is rain, sleet, or snow that has a higher level of acidity due to pollutants like sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides. These pollutants can react with water vapor in the atmosphere to form sulfuric acid and nitric acid, which then fall back to the ground during precipitation.
What is the instrument measuring by a rain gauge and a meter stick?
A rain gauge measures the amount of precipitation (rainfall) that has fallen in a specific area over a period of time. A meter stick is used to measure the depth or height of the water collected in the rain gauge to determine the exact amount of rainfall.
What does droplets that become to heavy to remain suspended in the air fall out of the clouds as?
Droplets that become too heavy to remain suspended in the air fall out of the clouds as precipitation, such as rain, snow, sleet, or hail.
Does a gauge measure rain fall?
No, a gauge typically measures the amount of liquid precipitation that accumulates over a specific time period, such as rain or snow. Rain gauges capture and collect rainfall for measurement and analysis.
What measures the intensity of rainfall and snowfall?
The intensity of rainfall and snowfall is measured using a rain gauge or a snow gauge. These devices collect and measure precipitation over a specific time period, providing data on the amount of rain or snow that has fallen in a particular location.
What is snow fall?
Snowfall is the precipitation of snowflakes from the atmosphere to the ground. It occurs when water vapor in the air freezes into ice crystals that then fall as snow. Snowfall can vary in intensity and accumulation, leading to different levels of snow cover on the ground.
What does a rain gauge measures?
a rain gauge measures the amount of rain, snow, or any liquid that falls from the skyThe rain gauge measures the amount of water, snow or any liquid that falls from the sky, to view the water level
Measures how much rain or snow has fallen?
rain gauge
A light fall of rain or snow?
smattering
What is the other name of rain or snow?
SNOW OR ICE
How do droplets become heavy enough so that the droplets fall as rain or snow?
how do droplets become heavy enogh so that the droplets fall as rain and snow
What is measured with a rain gauge or snow board?
rain is measured with a rain gauge but i have no idea what a snow board is :)
What does downfall mean?
a sudden fall of rain or snow
What is another word for rain snow sleet and hail?
Another word for rain, snow, sleet, and hail is "precipitation." This term encompasses all forms of water, liquid or solid, that fall from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface. Precipitation is a key component of the Earth's water cycle and can vary in intensity and form.
How are snow and rain fall are alike?
They are both types of precipitation.
