Raindrops Break The Speed Limit Part A: which statement describes the central idea of the text?

A. Scientist have observed some small raindrops falling faster then what was previously calculated to be their top speed.

B. There is no explanation for why raindrops which would exceed the terminal velocities scientists predicted.

C. Scientist are more likely to use the data collected from larger raindrops, rather than smaller raindrops, to make weather predictions.

D. Small raindrops that are able to exceed their predicted terminal velocities likely have something poisonous or unnatural in them.

Answer:

A

Explanation:

I'm not sure

Scientist have observed some small raindrops falling faster than what was previously calculated to be their top speed is the statement describes the central idea of the text. Hence, option A is correct.

The terminal speed of a raindrop in still air rises proportionally to its size, reaching a maximum of about 10 meters per second (20 knots) for the largest droplets. From, say, 4000 meters above the earth to the bottom, such a raindrop will need to travel for at least 400 seconds, or around seven minutes.

They were seen going faster than the speed limit. A falling object reaches its terminal velocity when friction, the air's slowing force, cancels out gravity's downward pull. That suggests that the fall slows down yet keeps falling continuously.

Thus, option A is correct.
