What causes evaporation besides heat?
Wind or air movement also promotes evaporation. Evaporation is also much faster in a vacuum.
How does an increase in wind speed affect evaporation?
By carrying away moisture the wind allows air with a greater ability to absorb evaporation and so increased evaporation will occur (until equilibrium in vapor pressure is reached).
Does the surface area of water affects its rate of evaporation without wind or direct sunlight?
yes. the greater the area, the more the evaporation.
What amplifies the effects on temperature by increasing heat loss by evaporation and convection?
Wind
What Are the factors effecting rate of evaporation?
The Factors Effecting Rates of Evaporation are written below: 1:Heat 2:Surface Area 3:Wind
Can you justify a solar cover with savings from evaporation heat and chemical loss for a large commercial pool?
65% of your heat loss, especially in a large commercial pool, is through convection and evaporation. Convection is heat transfer from surface to air through wind speed and the difference between air and water temperature. Evaporation is converting water to vapor and requires a lot of energy and makes up the largest percentage of heat loss(50%).Having a pool cover, solar or otherwise, reduces convection and evaporation by approximately 90%.
What 3 things increase the rate of evaporation?
well i think it is heat air and temperature to be honest good luck
How does humidity effect the rate of evaporation?
Yes, It does effect on the evaporation rate because the warmer the air, the faster the evaporation. But wind that's going fast or 'wind speed air humidity' makes air colder whitch slows down the evaporation rate.
How does standing in a wind when you are sweating cool you down faster?
We sweat to remove body heat through the process of evaporation. Our sweat is mainly water and in order for it to evaporate it it requires latent heat energy to transform into water vapor(gas). This heat energy comes in the form of bodily heat that is available on the surface of our skin. A cooling effect is felt from this heat removal and it is intensified when wind is present. Wind is the flowing of air and as it moves past evaporating water at high rate it picks up the water vapor and speeds up the evaporation process. The intensified cool felt by wind is an increase in the rate of evaporation and transfer of latent heat energy (body heat).
What is the effect of nature of liquid on the rate of evaporation?
heat, humidity,wind and the surface area of container that it is in.
Why are you suddeNly cold when you step out the poll and the wind blows?
When the wind blows past any wet surface it begins to dry it by a process called "evaporation", but evaporation requires heat for it to succeed. If your skin is the wet surface this heat will be taken from your skin, and so you will feel cold and perhaps begin to shiver. Shivering is a mainly muscular action which generates heat.
When you get out of the sea you often feel colder than when swimming why?
Because you can feel the wind on the water on your body - heat loss by evaporation.
