If droplets are numerous and large why can rainfall be intense?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Because more water can fall in less time

Correct answer: A. Rainfall intensity means the amount of water reaching the ground in a given period, such as a minute or an hour. When a cloud contains many droplets and those droplets grow large enough to fall, a greater volume of water can reach the surface quickly. Large drops also have greater weight and generally fall more readily than very tiny cloud droplets. Therefore, numerous large droplets can produce a heavy shower. B is wrong because raindrops are made of water. C is wrong because raindrops are liquid or frozen water, not rocks. D is wrong because sufficiently large drops can fall; only very tiny droplets may remain suspended or evaporate. Memory cue: more drops plus bigger drops plus less time means greater rainfall intensity.
