When the dry bulb temperature is 22 and the wet bulb temperature is 13 the relative humidity is?

The relative humidity is about 45%.


What happens when the wet and dry bulb thermometers are close together?

When the wet and dry bulb thermometers are close together, it indicates that the air is close to being saturated with moisture. This can help determine the relative humidity of the air. If the readings are the same, it means the air is fully saturated and the relative humidity is 100%.


Will the relative humidity be high if the wet-bulb depression increases?

No, the relative humidity will be low if the wet-bulb depression increases. Wet-bulb depression is the difference between the dry-bulb temperature and the wet-bulb temperature, and a higher wet-bulb depression indicates drier air.


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".


When the dry-bulb temperature is 22c and the wet-bulb temperature is 13c the relative humidity is?

To calculate relative humidity, you can use a psychrometric chart or formulas. At a dry-bulb temperature of 22°C and a wet-bulb temperature of 13°C, the relative humidity is approximately 47%. This indicates the amount of moisture in the air compared to the maximum moisture the air can hold at that temperature.

Psychrometer measures what?

A psychrometer is a device used to measure the relative humidity in the air. It consists of two thermometers: a wet bulb and a dry bulb. By comparing the differences in temperature readings between the two thermometers, the relative humidity can be calculated.

If the difference between a wet bulb and a dry bulb thermometer is great is the humidity low?

No, the humidity is high when wet and dry bulb temps are far apart.

What is wet bulb and dry bulb thermometer?

It is used to ready humidity levels. You compare the readings off the wet and dry bulb, then find the humidity on the chart (see Sling Psychrometer).


How would you use a wet bulb thermometer and a dry bulb thermometer to find the relative humidity?

You would use both to determine the relative humidity.


What is the significance of wet bulb temperature?

dry bulb temperature simply tells us the temperature of dry air.but the comfort also depends on humidity ie. water vapour presents in the air.Wet bulb temperature measures the humidity in the air.Because the evaporation of water in the bulb wick depends on the relative humidity of surrounding air.


What is the relative humidity on a psychrometer if the dry-bulb reading is 8 degrees Celsius and the wet-bulb reading is 7 degrees Celsius?

To determine the relative humidity, we need a psychrometric chart that relates wet-bulb and dry-bulb temperatures. Without that information, we cannot provide the exact relative humidity at those temperatures.


The difference between wet-bulb and dry-bulb temperature is called?

The difference between wet-bulb and dry-bulb temperature is called the Wet-Bulb Depression. It is a measure of air humidity, with a larger depression indicating higher humidity levels.


Will the relative humidity be high if the wet-bulb depression increases?

No, the relative humidity will be low if the wet-bulb depression increases. Wet-bulb depression is the difference between the dry-bulb temperature and the wet-bulb temperature, and a higher wet-bulb depression indicates drier air.


What instrument measures relative humidity using wet-bulb and dry-bulb thermometers?

Hygrometer
