What are two parts of psychrometer?
The two parts of a psychrometer is the dry-bulb thermometer and the wet-bulb thermometer.

Explain how you would use a wet bulb thermometer and a dry bulb thermometer to find the relative humidity?
the wet bulb is cooler
How does a dry bulb and wet bulb thermometer work?
A dry and wet bulb thermometer works via being moisturized in conjunction with a wet cotton swab which would evaporate. From there, the temperatures are recorded before more recordings for other temperatures are done with a psychometric chat regarding one's findings with the dry and wet bulb thermometer.
What cause the wet bulb thermometer to read lower than the dry bulb thermometer?
because the water causes the temperature to be lower
Is wet and dry bulb thermometer same as hygrometer?

If the difference between a wet bulb and a dry bulb thermometer is great is the humidity low?
No, the humidity is high when wet and dry bulb temps are far apart.
How would you use a wet bulb thermometer and a dry bulb thermometer to find the relative humidity?
You would use both to determine the relative humidity.
What weather element is measured with a wet and dry bulb thermometer?
humidity
How do you use a wet bulb thermometer and a dry bulb thermometer?
as the air passes over the wet bulb thermometer the water in the cloth evaporates. as the water evaporates the cloth cools. if the humidity is low the water will evaporate more quickly and the temperature reading on the wet bulb thermometer will drop. if the humidity is high only a little bit of water will evaporate from the cloth of the wet bulb thermometer and the change in temperature will be small.
