Why does it rain?

Question

Why does it rain?

Answer 1

bcuz the sun's heat makes tha water evaporate

then it goes into tha sky and mixes wit dust particles and condenses

then it cools and turns into rain drops and collides wit other rain drops in tha cloud

then it falls from tha sky!

yay!(tha water cycle)

Answer 2

Moisture in the atmosphere is rain. But this moisture falls when air at the ground is heated from the sun, and rises, because hot things are less dense. Then it expands as it rises due to less friction. So it rises up into the atmosphere until it cools enough that it reaches dewpoint, then it condenses. If the air is cold enough, it will become snow. Then the atmosphere cannot hold the condensed liquid, which is much heavier than the uncondensed moisture, and it drops as rain.

Answer 3

The Water cycle.

Its main parts are:

*  evaporation (and transpiration)

* condensation

* precipitation

* collection

* Evaporation - when the sun heats up the water (in rivers, sea, etc.) and it turns into water vapour, travelling up into the air.

* Condesation - The water vapour gets cold in the air, and turns back into liquid, forming clouds.

*Preciptation - Happens when too much water has condensed & the air can't hold it anymore, it falls down to the ground in the form of rain, snow, hail, or sleet.

*Collection - When the water falls back onto ground, it will end up as ground water and is absorbed by plants, r back into water (sea, etc.) for it to happen again.
