How does a moisture meter give a reading of the moisture content of wood?
By passing an electrical current from one pin to the other. The greater the moisture content, the higher the resistance. By measuring the resistance, it gives an estimate of the average moisture content. I think. 2009/03/14 - Correct, but exactly backwards .... Moisture (water) can be a conductor. Dry wood is an insulator. The higher the moisture content, the lower the resistance and vice-versa. Wood with a high moisture content gives a low resistance to the tester and conducts the test voltage better.
What are the four major types of air masses according to moisture content?
Precipitation
How do you determine fixed carbon?
Fixed Carbon by Difference = 100 - (Volatile Content + Ash Content + Moisture Content)
What is the difference between moisture and loss on drying?
LOD: Loss on drying......MC: Moisture content..... By using LOD we messures Accurate weight of the Compound... i.e..Loss of Solvents ,Moisture Present in that compound at the bellow of that compound Melting point.. MC: By using moisture content we just messures about the moisture of the compound..
How is moisture content and temperature of an air mass determined?
By The source region
Why you are doing initial moisture content critical moisture content and equilibrium moisture content test?
if we know initial moisture content of the object we can identify how much drying energy required for dry the same moist material. if it is a food material we have to reduce the moisture content upto certain level, otherwise it may be destroyed. if we know the initial moisture content of same food object, we can reduce its moisture content upto 10% of its initial moisture content.

How much starch in avocado?
Avocados are absent of starch and have a low sugar content.
What is the moisture content of fruit powder?
The moisture content in fruit powder should be zero. Any moisture will cause the powder to cling together, and encourage the growth of mould.
What instruments measure air moisture?
A hygrometer measures the moisture content of the air. There are several different types, all of which measure something else which indicates the moisture content.
What does starch do to a filling?
Starch thickens a filling. You need to use the proper amount of starch and heat it properly to bind the moisture of the pie filling and the sugar.
