What determines the amount of water that can be held in the air?
The temperature determines the amount of water vapor that can be held in the air. The warmer the air, the greater the amount of water that the air can hold.
Is humidity the water in the air or the lack of water in the air?
Humidity is a measure of the amount of water in the air, compared to the maximum possible amount that could be dissolved.
Does the hygrometer measure the amount of dust in the air?
No, a hygrometer measures humidity; the amount of water in the air.
What is relative humidity a ratio of?
Relative humidity is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapour to the saturation vapour pressure of water at the same temperature. Relative humidity depends on temperature and the pressure. Very roughly speaking, it is a ratio of the amount of water vapour in the air compared to the total amount of water vapour that it possible for that air to contain.
What term is given to the amount of moisture in the air?
The amount of moister in the air is called the relative humidity. It is the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor in an air water mixture to the saturated vapor pressure of water.
What determines the amount of water that can be held in the air?
The temperature determines the amount of water vapor that can be held in the air. The warmer the air, the greater the amount of water that the air can hold.
Is humidity the amount of dust in the air?
no. humidity is the amount of water in the air.
Is humidity the water in the air or the lack of water in the air?
Humidity is a measure of the amount of water in the air, compared to the maximum possible amount that could be dissolved.
The amount of water vapor in the air is called what.?
Humidity is the measurement of the amount of water vapour in the air.
What is the best way to determine if a dehumidifier is working effectively?
Dehumidifiers pull moisture from the air, and subsequently warm the air slightly. One way to determine if the dehumidifier is working effectively is to monitor the amount of water in the pan, or the frequency with which the pan has to be emptied.
What two factors determine the amount or lift achieved by an airplane?
thrust and wing size determine the amount of lift achieved by an air plane.
What is The amount of water in air compared to the amount the air can hold is?
relative humidity
What is the amount of water vapor the air IS holding compared to the amount of water vapor that the air CAN hold at that temperature?
Relative humidity
What is amount of water in the air compared to the amount the air can hold called?
relative humidity
What is the amount of water in the air compared to the amount of air can hold is called?
Relative humidity.
What is the amount of water in the air compared to the amount of air can hold called?
"relative humidity"
What factor most affects the amount of water air can hold-?
Water vapor in the air compared to the amount of water vapor that air could hold at a given temperature.
