Does the thickness or thinness of a cloud depend on how close together the water droplets are that make up the giant cloud?
Well, here at S’COOL we signify thickness and thinness with the terms Opaque, Translucent and Transparent…or the Visual Opacity. Considering this question from that standpoint you can see that thick clouds are clouds that do not allow much light to pass – which means that they contain lots and lots of cloud particles. Thin clouds allow more light to pass through – which means they contain fewer particles. However, these particles may not necessarily be closer or farther together, if the cloud is physically think and there are lots of particles that are vertically spread out to reflect light.
