How does a clothes line dry your clothes?
Clothes dry by evaporation. Hanging them on a clothes line exposes them to more air circulation, which speeds up the evaporation.
Why do we feel comfertable under a fan when we are perspiring?
The moving air increases the rate of evaporation of your sweat, so cooling you down.
What happens to the rate of evaporation after raining?
A lot of things get wet, in the rain, and they all are sources of evaporating water, so the rate of evaporation temporarily increases. Eventually things dry out and return to normal.
When a wet towel is left in the sun it eventually becomes dry. It dries through the process of?
When a wet towel is left in the sun it eventually becomes dry, it is dried through the process of evaporation.
Why the rate of evaporation increases when the air is less humid?
The System of liquid water and the moisture in the air (water vapor) tends to remain in an equilibrium. So if the air is less humid, the water evaporation process goes forward so as to attain equilibrium, and if the air has already water vapor, then the process becomes less favorable and hence slow.
Why does cloth dry on hot days?
Heat increases the evaporation rate of water.
What happens to the rate of evaporation when air is dry?
when air is dry rate of evaporation speeds up It goes up as there is less moisture in the air which leaves more room for water vapor.
How does the warming of the ocean affect the water cycle?
it increases the evaporation water.
Does wind or moving air decrease the rate of evaporation?
No, it increases the rate.
What factors can make evaporation happen faster when your clothes are hung out to dry?
heat and air
How does a clothes line dry your clothes?
Clothes dry by evaporation. Hanging them on a clothes line exposes them to more air circulation, which speeds up the evaporation.
How does the length of time it takes for a sponge to dry depends on the humidity of the air?
There is a limit to how much moisture the air can hold (that limit increases as the air gets warmer). When the air cannot hold any more water, the air is said to have a relative humidity of 100%. Evaporation is fastest when the air is driest.
Puddles and washing can dry as water particles drift into the air this is called?
evaporation
Why do people feel cooler on a hot dry day than on a hot humid day?
On a hot humid day the air circulation is heldup by the moisture density present in the air. the air gains weight and will not move . where as on a dry hot day the air is lighter and travels freely. * * * * * The air on a hot humid day holds much more moisture than on a hot dry day. As a result, your perspiration will evaporate much more quickly on a dry hot day and the process of evaporation will require heat equivalent to the latent heat of vaporisation. A lot of this heat will be taken from your body and that is why you will feel cooler.
What does salinity do as evaporation increases?
Salinity increases as evaporation increases.
When air passes over a Mountain dry air moves downward on the opposite side creating what?
warmth and evaporation
Why do we feel comfertable under a fan when we are perspiring?
The moving air increases the rate of evaporation of your sweat, so cooling you down.
