When the temperature equals the dew point, what is the relative humidity?
A.zero
B.10%
C.50%
D.100%
thats just sad 4 years later no answers LOL
A its A
Actually its C
its been 4 years im sorry
@lol said that on the day of my birthday LOL what a coincidence
To determine the relative humidity when the temperature equals the dew point, we need to understand the definition of dew point and how it relates to relative humidity.
The dew point is the temperature at which the air becomes saturated with water vapor, leading to the formation of dew or fog. It is the temperature at which the air can no longer hold all the moisture it contains.
Relative humidity, on the other hand, is a measure of the amount of moisture in the air compared to the maximum amount of moisture the air can hold at a given temperature. It is expressed as a percentage.
When the temperature equals the dew point, it means that the air is fully saturated with moisture. This happens when the air cannot hold any more water vapor at that particular temperature. Therefore, the relative humidity is 100%.
So, the correct answer is D. 100%.
Now wait a minute, what do you think dew point means?
It is the point where there is so much water in the air that the air can not hold any more at that temperature. That means the relative humidity is 100%
