Why an adiabatic curve steeper than an iosthermal?

In isothermal the temperature is constant whereas in adiabatic the temperature falls or rises rapidly.Consider the case for expansion where in adiabatic the temperature drops. If you consider PV/T=constant then for same pressure we can show that as temp decreases the volume also decreases. During expansion for isothermal the temp does not change so volume is higher than adiabatic. Example: Isothermal P=8 Pa, V=x , T=2K Adiabatic P=8 Pa, V=y, T=1K (as it drops) Using PV/T=constant we can find that y is less than x.


Why does a hot cup cool down more quickly from 80degrees-60degrees than 60degrees-40degrees?

The rate of cooling is faster from 80°C to 60°C because the temperature difference between the cup and its surroundings is greater, increasing the rate of heat transfer. As the cup cools down towards 60°C, the temperature difference decreases, causing the rate of cooling to slow down. This results in a faster cooling rate initially and a slower cooling rate as the temperature of the cup approaches 40°C.


What is the rate of change if the temperature decreases from 78 degrees to 65 degrees?

65degrees is 1/6 less than 78degrees (that is 65 is 17% less than 78)


Why does water cool faster in the beieging then at the end?

In the beginning of what ? At the end of what ?Do you mean "Why does hot water cool faster than cool water ?" ?Because the rate at which heat passes from a warm object to a cool objectdepends on the difference in their temperatures. So, as the warm objectbecomes less warm and the difference in their temperatures becomes smaller,the rate at which heat flows between them also becomes less.


Is it true that the women's heart beat faster than men?

Yes, on average, women tend to have a higher resting heart rate than men. This is primarily because women's hearts are typically smaller and pump less blood with each beat than men's hearts, leading to a faster heart rate. Other factors such as age, fitness level, and hormone levels can also influence heart rate.

Why is saturated adiabatic lapse rate a lesser than dry adiabatic lapse rate?

The saturated adiabatic lapse rate is lower than the dry adiabatic lapse rate because during the process of condensation, heat is released into the atmosphere, which partially offsets the cooling effect of rising air. This release of heat makes the cooling rate of saturated air less than that of dry air as it ascends through the atmosphere.


The wet adiabatic rate of cooling is less than the dry rate because?

the wet adiabatic rate of cooling involves condensation of water vapor, releasing latent heat which partially offsets the cooling from expansion. This latent heat addition makes the wet rate slower than the dry rate, where no condensation occurs.


Stability prevails when the environmental lapse rate is?

Stability prevails when the environmental lapse rate is less than the adiabatic lapse rate. This means that the temperature of the surrounding air decreases at a slower rate with altitude compared to the dry or moist adiabatic lapse rates, resulting in a more stable atmosphere.


Why is the saturated adiabatic lapse rate lower than the unsaturated adiabatic lapse rate?

The saturated adiabatic lapse rate is lower than the unsaturated adiabatic lapse rate because when air is saturated with moisture, the release of latent heat from condensation offsets some of the cooling that would normally occur as the air rises. This results in a slower rate of temperature decrease with height compared to unsaturated air.


What must the environmental lapse be in order for stability to prevail?

less than the wet adiabatic rate.


Why SALR is less than DALR?

The SALR is always less than the DALR because the cooling caused by adiabatic expansion is partially offset by the release of latent energy during condensation.


When the environmental lapse rate is less than the dry adiabatic rate a parcel of air will be?

Then the air is called "stable" because a parcel of air from the surface lifted upward will drop in temperature at the dry adiabatic lapse rate. If the environmental lapse rate is less, then the lifted air will be cooler and more dense than the surrounding air, and thus stop moving upward through the atmosphere.


How does the moist adiabatic lapse rate compare with the dry-adiabatic lapse rate?

environmental lapse rate involves the actual temperature of the atmosphere at various heights. adiabatic cooling is the cooling of air caused when air is not allowed to expand or compress.


Is the adiabatic lapse rate higher when its cloudy or not?

There are two types of adiabatic lapse rates...wet and dry. (wet is also referred to as saturated or moist) To the extent that the cloudiness your question refers to represents saturated air, then no, the wet adiabatic lapse rate would be lower (approximately 1.5C/1000') than the dry adiabatic lapse rate (approximately 3C/1000').


How is adiabatic cooling better than liquid cooling?

Adiabatic cooling happens when air cannot expand or compress. A liquid cooling system uses a special integrated pump, reservoir and a cold plate unit. The process for liquid cooling is long and complicated to fit in a small box. Check out Asetek where you can read the entire process and see a demonstration.
