Question
How is rain produced?
Advertisements
Solution
Rain is produced by two natural processes, i.e., evaporation and condensation. The water from water bodies evaporates into the air and gets condensed in the form of tiny droplets. Enormous droplets of water appear in the form of clouds. When the droplets become big and heavy, they fall down in the form of rain.
