Does evaporation take place when relative humidity is high or low?

either way because if the humidity is high then evaporation will be slow. change it all the way around like now humidity is low the evaporation will be fast.

How does the water evaporate when the humidity is high?
The evaporation is not significant at high humidity.
What should the low and high end for humidity temperatures for your home?
30 to 50% of Relative humidity - the relative part of relative humidity being relative to the temperature.
How much us high relative humidity?
Relative humidity is 100% of water vapor in the air. When that happens dew forms.
What are facts about relative humidity?
Relative Humidity is measured with a HygrometerHumidity is the amount of water vapor in the air.On hot days, when it feels sticky, the humidity would then be high.
What is the rate of water evaporation increased by?
Evaporation is improved at high temperature, low pressure, low humidity, etc.
What does it mean when the two thermometers read nearly the same on a psychrometer?
It means that the relative humidity is high, because very little evaporation is taking place from the wet bulb.
Why evaporation of sweat slows down when the relative humidity is high?
Sweating, by itself, does nothing to cool the body, unless the water is removed by evaporation -- and high relative humidity retards evaporation. This explains why it feels so much hotter in high humidity. When relative humidity reaches a high enough level, the body's natural cooling system simply can't work. Sweat evaporates very slowly, if at all, and the body heats up. In extreme cases, people begin to suffer from heat cramps or heat stroke, which is basically organ failure as the body begins to cook itself.
How does the water evaporate when the humidity is high?
The evaporation is not significant at high humidity.
How does humidity afect evaporation?
High humidity retards evaporation, and it may not occur at all if the air is at saturation, Low humidity accelerates it, and in extremely hot, and dry conditions water may vaporize quite readily, and rapidly. See psychrometrics, Relative Hummidity, Latent Heat, and sublimation.
What should the low and high end for humidity temperatures for your home?
30 to 50% of Relative humidity - the relative part of relative humidity being relative to the temperature.
What would be a brief project description for does the rate of evaporation of water depend upon the temperature?
The fact is this is not the variable you should be looking at rather the Relative humidity and the air pressure takes a part in it if you have a low RH you will get fast evaporation compared to high humidity where the water has no where to go.
Do water puddles evaporate faster on days when the humidity is high or low?
Low, this is because the relative humidity is also lower. The relative humidity is how much water vapor is in the aircompared to how much it can hold, if it is lower, it can hols more so wet things dry faster.
What is the relationship between high relative humidity and a feeling of discomfort in the summer?
Relative humidity causes heat and therefore discomfort
What is the relationship between high relative humidity and the feeling of discomfort in the summer?
