The stage of thunderstorm formation which is characterized by updrafts accompanied by downdrafts induced by falling precipitation is called "mature stage."

<h3>What is thunderstorm?</h3>

Thunderstorms are ferocious, brief meteorological disturbances that are nearly always accompanied by lightning, thunder, thick clouds, significant amounts of rain or hail, with strong gusts of wind.

Some characteristics of thunderstorm are-

  • Layers of warmer, moist air travel in a strong updraft to cooler areas of the atmosphere, whereupon thunderstorms form.
  • At that location, the updraft's moisture condenses to create imposing cumulus clouds and, subsequently, precipitation.
  • Cooled air columns then descend to the ground and are met by powerful downpours and horizontal winds.
  • In parallel, electrical charges build up on cloud molecules (water droplets with ice).
  • When the electric charge that has collected is sufficiently high, lightning discharges happen.
  • When lightning strikes, it instantly and intensely warms the surrounding air, creating shock waves that sound like thunderclaps and rolls.
  • Occasionally, air vortices that are spinning and powerful enough just to create tornadoes are present with intense thunderstorms.

Where do the Sun’s rays hit Earth’s surface nearly at right angles?
Usimov [2.4K]
The Sun's rays hit the Earth's surface nearly at right angles at the Earth's equator.
During equinox periods in March and September, the Sun's rays hit the Equator at a perpendicular angle because the Sun is in a position in the sky directly over the Earth's equator. This in turn means that the Sun's rays hit the Earth’s surface nearly at right angles

Charles's law states that at a constant pressure, the volume of a given amount of gas is _____ to its absolute temperature.
Aloiza [94]
<span>Charles's law states that at a constant pressure, the volume of a given amount of gas is directly proportional to its absolute temperature. Charle's law is also derived from the ideal gas law which states that:

PV = nRT

As you can see, V and T are already directly proportional with each other. The only difference with Charles Law is that pressure was held constant, cancelling out the moles and gas constant.</span>

Explosive eruptions tend to build up? composite volcanoes. many subsequent lava flows. plateau basalts. shield-shaped volcanoes.
castortr0y [4]

Explosive eruptions tend to build up composite volcanoes.

A composite volcano evolved over tens of thousands of years as a result of several eruptions. The composite volcano is built up through eruptions, layer by layer, until it reaches heights of thousands of meters. Lava may have formed some layers, while ash, rock, and pyroclastic flows may have formed others. A composite volcano can also accumulate significant amounts of thick magma, which can clog up inside the volcano and force it to erupt violently.

  Composite Volcano are fueled by a conduit system that accesses a magma reserve deep within the Earth. This magma can erupt either from a sizable core crater at the volcano's summit or from a number of vents scattered throughout the flanks of the composite volcano.
