Introduction We know that the gas’s large number of molecules are known as particles. The particles move randomly here and there without any alignment and due to this random motion, they strike each other and change their path. When it is not easy to understand the actual paths of moving ... Read More

Introduction Clouds reflect much of the solar radiation in the atmosphere. It prevents the heat from falling on the earth. Therefore, cloudless desert areas have higher temperatures and cloudier areas have lower temperatures. Rain falls when the temperature is above freezing. Rainfall is found in most places on earth. ... Read More
