What happens to precipitation when altitude increases?
It becomes snow!
What happens when the air temperature and the dew point temperature are close together?
When both come closer,relative humidity increases;When they are almost equal,condensation water vapour begins.
What happens to relative humidity as a parcel or air rises?
The relative humidity drops. This is because the temperature for the parcel of air is cold and wet which leaves enough room for some water vapor, but not a lot.
When air is cooled what happens to Relative Humidity?
Yes. Relative humidity is the amount of water vapor actually in the air compared to the amount that could be in the air (saturation point) at the exisiting temperature. So, if the temperature of the air changes and the amount of water vapor in it does not, the relative humidity will be different. But, if the temperature of the air changes and so does the amount of water vapor in it, then the relative humidity could be the same as before the temperature change. That is to say that the air could contain the same percentage of water vapor that it could hold at each temperature, even though the actual amounts are different.
When temperature goes up what happens to relative humidity?
For all other things unchanged: Relative Humidity can be calculated by this equation: RH = (Vapor Pressure)/(Saturated Vapor Pressure) x100 From what we know about Saturated vapor pressures (saturated warm air has more water vapor than cool air that is saturated) we notice that more water vapor in the same given volume of air would inherently increase SATURATED vapor pressure. Thus, by simple mathematics (explained below), we can see that relative humidity would decrease as temperatures increase. If, for a given fraction y/x, as x increases the fraction becomes smaller and smaller - assuming y is constant.
What happens to humidity if temperature increases?
The relative humidity decreases
If the air temperature stays the samewhat happens to the relative humidity when the amount of moisture increases?
Relative humidity increases.
What happens to relative humidity if the amount of water vapor in the air stays the same and temp increases?
The relative humidity will decrease.
What happens to the relative humidity if the amount of water vapor in the stays the but the air get coolers?
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.
What happens to the relative humidity when the temperature increases and the water vapor stays the same?
it decreases :)
What happens to the relative humidity of the amount of water vapor in the air stays the same but the air gets cooler?
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.
What happens to the relative humidity if the amount if water vapor in the air stays the same but the air gets cooler?
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.
What happens to the relative humidity if the amount of water vapor in the air stays the same but air gets cooler?
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.
What happens to the relative humidity if the amount of water vapor in the air stays the amount but the air gets cooler?
The relative humidity increases, assuming that the pressure stays the same.
What happens when air that has reached its dew point is cooled further?
Relative humidity increases
If the amount of moisture stays the samewhat happens to the relative humidity when the air temperature decreases?
relative humidity increases. at a lower temperature, the air can hold less water vapour.
What happens when air has reached its dew point?
condensation Another question that follows: As an air mass cools to its dew point; relative humidity increases
