What would happen if a wet bulb had the same temperature as a dry bulb?
That means that there is 100% humidity. Normally evaporation from the wet bulb keeps its temperature lower than the dry bulb. At 100% humidity, there would be no evaporation, so they would show the same temperature.
What is the dew point when the dry bulb temperature is 14C and the dry bulb temperature is 8C?
-9c
When wet bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature are equal?
for air water system wet bulb equals to dry bulb at 100 % relative humidity for that given temperature of air.
Can A wet rock generally melts at a lower temperature than a dry rock?
yes
What is the dew-point temperature when the dry bulb temperature is 16 degrees Celsius and the wet bulb temperature is 11 degrees Celsius?
-17
What cause the wet bulb thermometer to read lower than the dry bulb thermometer?
because the water causes the temperature to be lower
Is The wet bulb thermometer reading is always higher than the dry bulb?
No, the wet bulb is always lower. Evaporation from the wet bulb reduces its temperature.
Is the wet bulb thermometer reading always higher than the dry bulb?
No, the wet bulb is always lower. Evaporation from the wet bulb reduces its temperature.

Why did the wet-bulb temperature record a lower temperature then a dry-bulb temperature?
the evaporation off the moisture on the wet bulb absorbs the heat.
Is the wet bulb thermometer reading always higher than a dry bulb reading?
No, the wet bulb is always lower. Evaporation from the wet bulb reduces its temperature.
Why is temperature lower on a wet bulb the a dry bulb?
Because the process of evaporation absorbs heat from the bulb.
What cause wet bulb to read lower than dry bulb?
Evaporation of the water in the wet bulb fabric cover causes the temperature of the wet bulb to go down. When the air is dry, more water will evaporate, and when the air is saturated, less will evaporate.
Is the temperature of ice water lower than the temperature of dry ice in alcohol?
No. The temperature of dry ice is far lower than that of ice water.
What is the dew point when the dry bulb temperature is 14C and the dry bulb temperature is 8C?
-9c
When wet bulb temperature and dry bulb temperature are equal?
for air water system wet bulb equals to dry bulb at 100 % relative humidity for that given temperature of air.
How does the difference between the dry bulb temperature and the wet bulb temperature to the relative humidity?
When the humidity in the surrounding air is low, the water in the wet cloth wrapped around the bulb of the "wet bulb" thermometer evaporates quicker, giving lower reading on that thermoneter, thus widening the gap between the wet bulb and dry bulb temperatures. The lower the humidity in the air, the quicker the evaporation, the lower the "wet bulb temperature".
