Answer
Condensation
Answer
A cloud is just water in gaseous state.it is the combination of moisture with dust particles in high energy state.fog is the nearest or rather lowest cloud one can reach.When one sees fog, thee sees a cloud.There's no diffeerence at all.
Answer
Fog or Mist, cloud of condensed water vapor in the form of water droplets or ice crystals, suspended in the atmosphere just over the surface of the earth. In cities and industrial areas, fog often combines with smoke to produce the mixture called smog.
Meteorologically, fog can be classified into four general types according to the mechanism by which it is formed: advection, radiation, upslope, and precipitation.
Advection fog is formed whenever a current of relatively warm, moist air passes over a colder body of land or water. Fog of this type is frequent in the winter when snow is on the ground. It is also common over the ocean, as in the North Atlantic when winds blow across the warm Gulf Stream and reach the cold Labrador Current.
Radiation fog, formed only over land, is caused by the cooling of the earth by radiation. At night, radiation lowers water temperature comparatively slowly, but land cools rapidly, becoming cooler than the air above it; consequently a fog is formed. Such fog is seldom thick and usually “burns off” in the morning.
Answer
clouds are formed when water evaporates as water vapour and forms clouds in the sky.
if that makes any sense!!
What Clouds are Made Of
Clouds are made of small droplets of water or bits of ice that are spread out from each other. Rain falls when the drops get too big and heavy to stay in the cloud.
There are three main kinds of clouds: cirrus,cumulus and,stratus.
Each of these droplets of water is smaller than a grain of flour, and they are so light that they can float on air.
When pilots in airplanes fly through clouds they can see nothing but clouds. It's like being inside a thick fog or a steamy room.
