Clouds

A cloud is a visible body of very fine water droplets or ice particles suspended in the atmosphere at altitudes up to several miles above sea level. They are generally produced by the condensation of water vapor. Other clouds, less commonly seen, are composed of smokes or dusts.

Are clouds part of atmosphere or hydrosphere?

In a nutshell, yes. They are not a layer of the atmosphere, but since a cloud is humidity in the atmosphere I would call it a component that makes up our atmosphere.

Occurs when a gas cools and changes into a liquid?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

When gas cools and changes into liquid, it undergoes a process called condensation. This occurs when the temperature of the gas decreases, causing its particles to lose energy and come closer together, eventually forming liquid droplets.

Are clouds made by condensation?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Water is evaporated from the Earth. When the evaporation reaches a given height/temperature it will condense out as fine water droplets(clouds).

These fine water droplets remain in the sky , because of air currents. However, if they combine into larger droplets, they will eventually fall as rain.

Are cirrus or stratus clouds form above 6000 meters?

Asked by Wiki User

Cirrus clouds are found at 6000 meters. Stratus clouds at 2000 meters

What are the four levels of cloud heights?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The four levels of cloud heights, classified by their altitude above the Earth's surface, include low clouds (0-2,000 meters), mid-level clouds (2,000-7,000 meters), high clouds (5,000-13,000 meters), and vertically developed clouds (up to 20,000 meters or higher). Understanding these levels helps meteorologists analyze weather patterns and predict atmospheric conditions more accurately.

Do clouds melt?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Clouds don't melt in the same way that solid substances like ice do. Clouds are made up of tiny water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the air. When the conditions change, such as temperature or humidity, these droplets may evaporate or combine to form larger droplets, eventually falling as precipitation. So, while clouds don't melt, they undergo processes like condensation and evaporation based on atmospheric conditions.

What is a form of water falling from the sky and what is it measured with?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The commonest form of water falling from the sky is rain, measured with a pluviometer or rain gauge.

What happens when the water vapor in the air condenses?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

It rains, or maybe hail storm or a snowstorm.

What point is reached when liquid changes to gas?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Liquid changes to a gas is the BOILING POINT.

Conversely, when a gas changes to a liquid it is the CONDENSING POINT.

For a given substance in the same given conditions, the temperature of the Boiling/Condensing point is the same.

Why there is a white clouds?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The familiar white fluffy clouds we see in the daytime sky, and which are often cumulus, reflect light energy from the Sun because of the collective reflections of tiny water droplets that have nucleated or condensed from atmospheric water molecules.

Who invented water?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No body invented water!!

It has been with us (Earth) from time immemorial.

However, different civilisations, from history, wil have given it different names.

E.g. The Classical Greek - Hydros

'Clearing showers'.

Rising air pressure.

North westerl;y wind. , which can be squally/gusty before a shower.

falling dew point.

Quite often a rainbow can be seen.

The old weather lore in England is ' long foretold , long last, short notice, soon past'.

Also , 'A sharp rise (pressure) after low, foretells a stronger wind to blow'.

When a warm air mass and a cold air mass stall to each other what is that called?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A stationery front.

A cold front is where cold air gains over warm air.

Warm front is where warm air gains over cold air.

An Occluded front is where warm air is pushed up and cold aair over takes at lower levels.

Asked by Wiki User

It forms clouds.

Further condensation creates rain hail .
