Condensation and the formation of cumulus clouds begins as the rising air reaches its?
dew point temperature, causing the water vapor in the air to condense into water droplets or ice crystals. These condensed water droplets or ice crystals then come together to form cumulus clouds.
What relationship would you expect to find between the air temperature and dew point temperature at ground level if an area is covered in fog?
The relationship that you expect to find between the air temperature and dew point temperature at ground level if the area is covered by fog is the temperatures of th air and the dew point would be very close in value.
At which point will a cloud form?
when the temperature of the rising air falls below the dew point
How would you describe the cloud formation?
Clouds form when warm, humid air rises and cools to it's dew point.
at which temperature the water condense?
Water will start to condense onto objects when the air becomes "saturated" - when the temperature drops to the dew point (at which point the relative humidity will be 100%).
What temp does clouds form?
Condensation (cloud formation) will occur when dew point temperature equals ambient temperature.
Why isn't dew point always the same?
The dew point is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere. As the temperature gets closer to the dew point, the humidity rises. When the temperature finally drops to the dew point (100% humidity), the the atmosphere is completely saturated with water, and it will start to rain (or snow, if the dew point is below freezing). Since the atmosphere is completely saturated when the temperature is at the dew point, it cannot go below the dew point.
Temperature to which air must be cooled to reach saturation?
The temperature to which air must be cooled to reach saturation is called the dew point.
Is the dew point The temperature at which a gas deposits?
Dew point is the temperature at which air becomes saturated.
When air mass cools when will water condense?
when the temperature reaches the dew point.
What two conditions are required for cloud formation?
Dew Point and Temperature 1) The air needs to be cooled to its dew point. 2) The air needs to have reached saturation, which can be achieved through many ways.
A sentence for dew point?
The dew point controlled the temperature of the air.
When is dew point reached?
Dew point is reached when the temperature is low.
Why does dew point change day to day?
Because the temperature changes and the dew point is dependent on the temperature.
Describe what happens when air is cooled to its dew point?
The dew point is the varying temperature at which atmospheric humidity condenses. If the air temperature drops below the dew point, dew and condensation form.
What is the relationship between the temperature and dew point?
Dew point is the temperature at which the water vapor in the air condenses, then evaporates. The barometric or air pressure is independent from the dew point.
Use dew point in a sentence?
The dew point is the temperature where condensation begins.
