Convection causes the temperature of the air to vary from cool-hot. this variation between the hot air on the surface of the road and the cold air that is close above it creates a gradient located in the refractive index of air and you see what we call a mirage! hope this helps!.

Describe the water cycle process starting from an afternoon thunderstorm. There are many different variations that could happen.
spin [16.1K]

Explanation:

The water cycle basically involves five steps:

  • evaporation and transpiration ⇄
  • condensation, ⇄
  • precipitation, ⇄
  • runoff, ⇄
  • infiltration ⇄

So when a <u>thunderstorm </u>occurs it <em>helps in completing the precipitation process </em>by enabling the release of water vapor stored up in the atmosphere to fall on the ground as rain.

After this, the water <em>runoffs </em><em>to the surface of the ground, on plants, into rocks, rivers, and lakes.</em>

Next, the <em>Infiltration process</em> enables the water on the ground surface to enter the soil some of which becomes groundwater.

The cycle begins again as the<em> </em><em>evaporation and transpiration</em> <em>process </em>begins, where the groundwater as a result of heat from the sun is taken back into the atmosphere, while water in plants by means of transpiration goes back <em>into the atmosphere</em>.

It then <em>condenses </em>and falls back as precipitation again.
