How can droplet size in a cloud affect rainfall intensity?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Larger and more numerous drops can give heavier rain

Correct answer: A, larger and more numerous drops can give heavier rain. Rainfall intensity describes how much precipitation falls in a given amount of time. When cloud droplets combine or grow into larger drops, and when many such drops descend together, more water reaches the ground during that time. This can produce heavier rainfall. Option A is correct, although the word “can” is important: intensity also depends on the number of drops and the rate at which they fall, not size alone. B is wrong because tiny droplets usually remain suspended longer and do not always produce heavy rain. C is wrong because drop size and number influence the amount of water falling. D is wrong because water droplets do not turn into rock in ordinary cloud processes. Memory cue: heavier rain means more water delivered per unit time; larger drops often contribute.
