Rain doesn't hurt when it falls from the sky because the water droplets are very small and light, so they don't have enough force to cause pain when they hit our skin.

The liquid that falls from the sky when it rains is called rainwater. It is a natural form of precipitation that occurs when water vapor in the air condenses and falls back down to the ground.
Rain is not a force itself, but rather a result of gravity pulling water droplets down from clouds in the sky. Gravity is the force that causes rain to fall to the ground.
Rainbows are formed when sunlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed in water droplets in the atmosphere. This causes the light to separate into its various colors, creating the beautiful arc of colors that we see in the sky.
No, rain from the sky does not create waves in bodies of water. Waves are typically caused by wind blowing across the surface of the water, which creates ripples and eventually larger waves. Rainfall does not have a direct impact on wave formation.
Raindrops form when water vapor in the atmosphere condenses into liquid droplets due to cooling, typically occurring in warmer temperatures. Snow forms when water vapor condenses and freezes into ice crystals in colder temperatures. The different states of precipitation (liquid rain versus solid snow) are a result of the temperature at which the water droplets or ice crystals form and fall from the sky.
