A glass of ice water in a room with high humidity drips beads of moisture down its sides. Moisture is wetness caused by water; it usually can be seen and felt on an object. Humidity is wetness in the atmosphere caused by evaporated water; it cannot usually be seen or felt except when it condenses as droplets on an object that is cooler than the surrounding air. One side of a window may have beads of moisture on it when the humidity on that side is high and the window glass is relatively cool.
well,
amount of water vapor content in the air is the moisture .
amount of vapor lacking in air is humidity.

What is the normal humidity level at a temperature of 0 degrees F?
What is the normal humidity level at a temperature of 0 degrees F?
What is the difference between warm water and cold water?
temperature
What is the difference between anemometer and hygrometer?
An anemometer measures wind speed. A hygrometer measures relative humidity. Two different things entirely.
Does dampness and rain effect the temperature?
yes because of humidity
What is the difference in temperature between 136 Fahrenheit and -50 Fahrenheit?
186 degrees
What is the difference between high and low humidity?
Low is at high temperature High is at low temperature It kind of has to do with the way the shower is at the humidity rate
What is the difference between a thermostat and humidistat?
A humidistat senses humidity, thermostat temperature.
What is the difference between heat and humidity?
heat refers to the amount of high temperature in air.... and humidity refers to the amount of water in air.....
What is the relationship between temperature and relative humidity.?
The temperature determines the humidity.
What is the difference between relative humidity and dew point temperature?
relative humidity is the AMOUNT of water in the air. Dew Point is the TEMPERATURE at which the water vapor in the air is turned into liquid water.
Why does the windshield of a car fog up?
The presence of high humidity, and a difference in temperature between the inside and outside.
What is the difference between relative humidity and actual humidity?
Humidity is the amount of water vapor at any given time and relative humidity is the amount of water vapor in the air compared to the greatest amount it can hold at that air temperature.
What cause the difference between temperature and humidity?
Temperature is the amount of heat in a substance, so it's a measure of how fast something's molecules are moving. Humidity is how much water vapor is in the air. Temperature and humidity are different, but they are connected: both are features of the weather, and higher temperatures generally cause higher humidity, while lower temperatures cause lower humidity.
What difference in temperature is needed for condensation?
It varies for the condensing vapor and humidity. Condensation occurs when a vapor is cooled to its dewpoint. See "dew point" for more information. It is not necessarily a difference in temperature, since it changes based on humidity and air temperature.
What is relationship between relative humidity and temperature?
There is an effect if you're a living being and trying to cool down. Humidity does not change the temperature. It will make it difficult for your body to cool down, so it 'feels' hotter with humidity. Sweat has to evaporate for your body to cool down. It's harder to evaporate when the air is already saturated with water (ie high humidity).
What step should you follow to measure humidity with a psychrometer?
A sling psychrometer (or hygrometer) uses the difference in readings between a wet bulb thermometer and another with a dry bulb to measure the relative humidity. The bulb that is wet will cool by evaporation to the "dew point", which is the temperature at which the current humidity would be the maximum possible. Comparing that to the dry bulb (the general air temperature) on a comparative chart will yield the approximate relative humidity.
Do deserts have large changes in temperature on a daily basis?
Yes, due to the of the lack of humidity and cloud cover the difference between day and night temperatures in the desert can be quite extreme.
