To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


With this value of D the preceding formula is satisfied up at the altitude where P = 600 mm. and r = 10° C, with the value of J = 16.6, which is a very gentle ascending current, but suffi- ciently strong to prevent the falling of ordinary rain-drops.
Mr. Dines has measured rain-drops as small as 0.0033 inch in diameter. Drops of this size satisfy the formula up where P = 600 mm. with a value of j = 3, and hence an ascending velocity of 3 miles per hour would sustain such drops. Mr.
Dines" has a
...lso measured fog particles as small as 0.00062 inch, equal 0.0OO0517 of a foot. With this value of D the formula at an altitude where P = 600 mm. gives s = 0.41.
The law of resistance as the square of the diameter and velocity, as given by the expression of/', § 246 (for A is as If) may not hold very accurately for so small particles, but the formula applied in these cases at least shows that exceedingly small ascending velocities are sufficient to sustain even the larger and measurable cloud and fog particles in the air, and so there is no necessity to resort to the old and improbable vesicular theory of cloud particles in order to account for the floating of clouds in the air.
