The amount of water vapor in the air varies depending on present weather conditions. It can range from almost nothing to nearly 5% of the air's total volume.
Condensed water droplets held suspended in the air are known as fog. Fog forms when the air near the ground becomes saturated with water vapor, causing the water vapor to condense into tiny droplets that linger in the air.
Relative humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor content in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor that the air can hold at a specific temperature. It is expressed as a percentage and provides insight into how close the air is to being saturated with moisture.
When air holds the maximum amount of water vapor it can, we say it is saturated.
"Because relative humidity is related with the temperature of the air. Relative humidity is the rate of water vapour to the maximum amount of water vapour can air hold at that temperature. The amount of water vapour that air can hold is increses as the temperature of the air increases. If the air holds same amount of water while the temperature is incresing, relative humidity of the air decreses because maximum amount of water that air can hold increases and the rate of humidity to tha maximum humidity decreses."Someone had given this answer, and it is partially correct, however, their bizarre English and grammar skills make it hard to understand. I think what they meant was that relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air, compared to what the air can "hold" at a given temperature. As temperature increases, the amount of water vapor or moisture the air can hold does as well.So, after the sun rises the temperature of the air increases, so does the amount of moisture the air can hold and the actual amount of water vapor in the air may stay the same, thus decreasing the relative humidity. The opposite happens at night.Relative humidity = (actual vapor density/ saturation density) x100%
Precipitation does not directly affect the temperature. However, because there are often clouds that come with precipitation, this indirectly causes a drop in temperature.
The amount of water vapor that air can hold depends on its temperature. Warmer air can hold more water vapor than cooler air. This relationship is described by the concept of relative humidity, which is the ratio of the amount of water vapor present in the air to the maximum amount the air could hold at that temperature.
Humidity means amount of water vapour present in air with respect to total amount of air. Relative humidity means ratio of amount of water vapours per unit volume of air to the capacity of air to held maximum water vapours in unit volume of air, at given air temperature.
The relative humidity is a ratio of the amount of water in a given air over the amount of water that could be held in that same parcel of air. This number will vary as the temperature rises and falls as warmer air can hold more water than cooler air.
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.
Relative humidity is therm used in measuring the amount of water vapor in the air. High humidity can make the temperature feel higher than what the actual temperature is.
it is water vapor
no. humidity is the amount of water in the air.
Relative humidity is a measure of the amount of water vapor in the air. It represents the ratio of the amount of water vapor present in the air to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a specific temperature, expressed as a percentage.
Humidity is the measurement of the amount of water vapour in the air.
The amount of water in the air compared to the maximum amount of water vapor the air can hold at a given temperature is referred to as relative humidity. It is often expressed as a percentage.
relative humidity
The amount of water vapor in the air compared to the maximum amount it can hold at a specific temperature is called relative humidity.
