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 meant by the statement a thermometer measures its own temperature?
When a thermometer reaches thermal equilibrium, the temperature of the thermometer and the substance it is measuring are the same. Therefore, the thermometer is essentially measuring its own temperature.
What will happen if I go outside if the temperature is 42c?
you will be warm and cold at the same time.
What will happen if a technician uses a sling psychrometer that has a perfectly dry wick on the wet bulb thermometer?
If a dry wick is present the temperature shown on both thermometers will be the same. This data, when entered into the psychrometric chart, will indicate that the air has 100% relative humidity.
What would happen if both cold air masses had the same temperature?
Assuming they had similar humidities, two similar air masses would simply mix with no sensible effect caused by the mixing.
If both wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometers read the same?
I believe that would mean that the air is completely saturated with moisture-- 100% humidity.
What would the dew point temperature be when the wet and dry bulb temperature are the same?
the "current" temperature, ie, the temperature at which wet bulb and dry bulb are the same. when the wet bulb and dry bulb temperaturs equalized the dew point emperature equals them, because the air is saturated now.
What would happen if one bulb burns out in a parallel circuit?
Nothing much will happen except the same bulb will not blow..
What would happen to the bulb if you we give supply from the both sides at the same time?
as both supply is given from same phase then the bulb will glow as normal
What would happen to the air movement if the temperature was the same from ground to space?
It would be alot colder and we would not be alive.
What would happen to the brightness if you get a smaller bulb?
If smaller means less power for the same voltage, then a smaller bulb would result in less brightness. If smaller means less voltage for the same power, then a smaller builb would result in more brightness.
What does it mean when a dry bulb thermometer reads the same temperature as a wet bulb thermometer?
100% RH
When three bulbs connected to a battery in parallel circuit what will happen to the brightness of the bulbs?
The brightness of three bulb would be mare than one
What will happen to the volume of the gas if the temperature is doubled?
Assuming all other variables are kept the same, the volume would double.
What will happen to the temperature of the ice while to is melting?
It will stay the same
What will happen to the temperature of ice while it is melting?
It will stay the same
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".
What would happen if hot water was mixed with ice?
The hot water will get colder and the ice will melt and the water from the melted ice will get to the same temperature as the final temperature of the hot water.
