What else can I help you with?
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.
What is dry bulb?
The ordinary thermodynamic temperature of the air, what you would measure with a regular thermometer. This is in contrast to the wet bulb temperature, which is the temperature reached by a wet surface. A classical weather station uses a sling hygrometer to measure the two. This is a pair of thermometers, one of which has a wet covering, something like a sock that can be dipped in water. By measuring both of these the humidity can be determined. Temperature of the free air as measured with a dry thermometer on a sling psychrometer over a grassy surface at a height of approximately 6 feet (1.8 meters).
Would you expect the temperature of the wet-bulb thermometer to be higher on a humid dry day?
On a dry day, water will evaporate from the wet bulb thermometer, cooling it. On a humid day, since moisture is already in the air, less will evaporate, and cool it less.
Why dry ice does not wet the surface on which it is kept?
The reason that dry ice does not wet the surface on which it is stored is because dry ice is not made of water, but instead it is made with Carbon Dioxide. Because of the state of matter CO2 is at room temperature, it goes directly from a solid to a gas in a process called sublimation. Because of this, it never passes through the intermediate liquid state, thus not leaving anything on the surface on which it is set.
What is the relative humidity when the dry-bulb temperature is C and the wet bulb temperature is C?
50 percent
What happens when a wet object gets dry?
When a wet object gets dry, the water molecules on the surface of the object evaporate into the air, reducing its moisture content. This process is driven by temperature, airflow, and humidity levels in the surrounding environment.
Which one is always higher wet bulb temperature or dry bulb temperature?
The wet bulb temperature is always lower than the dry bulb temperature. The wet bulb temperature is the temperature taken by a thermometer covered in a wet cloth and exposed to moving air, and it reflects the evaporative cooling effect.
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.
Where most like live the fungi to wet or dry surface?
Wet surfaces.
What is the difference between wet-on-wet and wet-on-dry painting?
"Wet on wet" or "wet in wet" means that you are applying wet paint (usually oil, artist's colours) to a surface that you have already painted which is still wet. If using oil, then your surface would be oil based, such as linseed oil or turpentine. This technique enables you to move and blend the paint to finish a painting in one sitting. "Wet on dry" means you are applying wet paint to a dry surface that you have painted earlier and allowed to dry. You can do this to either build up an area, or as in glazing, to achieve certain effects.
What does a wet bulb and a dry bulb measure?
A wet bulb measures the temperature after water evaporation allows to cool and a dry bulb measures air temperature.
How do you make a wet surface dry by air?
Let it sit and air dry.
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.
What is different between dry seal and wet seal?
well one is dry and one is wet
What instrument do you use to measure dry bulb and wet bulb temperature?
You would use a sling psychrometer to measure both dry bulb and wet bulb temperature. The dry bulb thermometer measures the air temperature, while the wet bulb thermometer measures the temperature with evaporative cooling considered.

Will metal dry if covered when wet?
Yes, metal will dry if covered wet and the temperature gets hot enough outside the cover
