Why it is difficult for water to evaporate when humidity is high?
It is difficult for water to evaporate when humidity is high because of water saturation in the surrounding environment.
It is a hot summer day with no wind the relative humidity is 50 percent as the sun goes down how would you expect the relative humidity to change?
As the sun goes down, the temperature drops and the capacity to hold water vapor in the air decreases increasing the relative humidity above 0 percent
How much water in a glass would evaporate in a week?
the water in the glass evaporates if the atmosphere temperature is at evaporating point of water
How does the water evaporate when the humidity is high?
The evaporation is not significant at high humidity.
What are the uses of a psychrometer?
Psychrometers are used for measuring the dew point and relative humidity which you have to have a chart to find and finding the relative humidity in controlled environments
Would sweat evaporate more quickly if the humidity were 92 percent or 37 percent?
I believe when you said Humidity, it meant Relative Humidity. When RH is more, in your case 92 percent, the air can absorb less water than the RH is at 37 percent. That is the reason we sweat when the humidity is more in the atmosphere. High temperature with less atmospheric RH is popularly known as DRY heat, where your sweat will readily evaporate and you will never know you are perspiring until you feel dizzy or faint out with sun stroke.
What term is defined as the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water that the air can hold?
This is the measure of relative humidity. At 50 percent relative humidity, the air is holding half of what it could. It is relative humidity because it is related to the temperature and pressure of the air.
What is the relative humidity of air filled to half its capacity?
Relative humidity becomes the ratio between the actual amount of water vapor present to the capacity that the air has at a particular moment. Just to be an optimist, if the glass is half-filled, the relative humidity is 50 percent. If the glass is three-quarters filled, the relative humidity is 75 percent.
Why it is difficult for water to evaporate when humidity is high?
It is difficult for water to evaporate when humidity is high because of water saturation in the surrounding environment.
How do use the word relative humidity in a sentence?
Relative humidity means the percentage of water vapor in the air compared to the total amount that could be contained. Or the measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared to the amount it can hold at a specific temperature. This is different at different temperatures. Here are a couple of sentences:1. The relative humidity is 10 percent.2. We studied relative humidity in class.3. Saturation air has a relative humidity of 100 percent.
What is the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the amount that could be in the air at that temperature?
relative humidity
It is a hot summer day with no wind the relative humidity is 50 percent as the sun goes down how would you expect the relative humidity to change?
As the sun goes down, the temperature drops and the capacity to hold water vapor in the air decreases increasing the relative humidity above 0 percent
Can water evaporate faster if there is more water?
Yes if more water means a bigger surface area, and the surrounding atmosphere is not saturated with water vapor (relative humidity < 100%).
How much water in a glass would evaporate in a week?
the water in the glass evaporates if the atmosphere temperature is at evaporating point of water
Does the color of water affet how long it takes to evaporate?
only very slightly. the speed of evaporation is influenced by the relative humidity in the air that it is in contact with.
How does the water evaporate when the humidity is high?
The evaporation is not significant at high humidity.
Under what condition of humidity does water evaporate faster?
Low humidity.
