Which force helps pull raindrops downward?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Gravity

Correct answer: A, gravity. Earth’s gravitational force attracts matter toward its centre. Tiny cloud droplets may remain suspended because they are very small and air currents can support them. When droplets combine and become larger and heavier, gravity pulls them downward. Magnetism is not the general force responsible for ordinary water droplets falling, so B is wrong. Friction opposes relative motion and does not pull raindrops toward Earth, so C is wrong. Light provides energy and illumination but does not normally draw raindrops downward, so D is wrong. Air resistance can slow a falling drop, but it does not reverse the downward pull of gravity. Memory cue: heavier drops fall because Earth pulls them.
