Discrete systems are those systems in which are made up of finite component particles a which are non-homogeneously arranged such that no smooth variation exists. It is such that all constituent particles have properties which vary randomly. They are direct opposite to continuous systems, which are smooth arrangement of particles which cannot be individually taken into consideration.

Interesting question. I think it's a question of scale. After all, charge is "discrete" or "quantised" into electronic charges.
So, relatively few of them - eg in an atom - would be discrete.
A lot of them - eg in an electric current - would be "continuous" (or an avalanche of discretes = a continuum ... )

1. What conditions are necessary for a hurricane to form?
tekilochka [14]
Each year is a different anount of hurricanes but on the Pacific Ocean there is about 14 hurricanes (that's form). Hurricanes rotate clockwise. The Saffir-Simpson scale, it's measured on a scale 1-5 property damage and flooding along the coast. Hurricanes get their names from meteorologist a long time ago from their communication about them being more effectively and to tell whether to stay more farther away from the hurricane. The calmest winds in the hurricane is the, Eye. Which the Eye is also called the, cyclone. The strongest winds are in the right-front side of the hurricanes center. Hope this helped! Sorry that I couldn't get everything.
