Dry
Day 1 - 30°C | Day 2 - 29°C | Day 3 - 25°C
Wet
Day 1 - 22°C | Day 2 - 22°C | Day 3 - 21°C
The reading above are for three consecutive days from a wet and dry bulb hygrometer. It can be concluded that the relative humidity for the three days
Day 1 - 30°C | Day 2 - 29°C | Day 3 - 25°C
Wet
Day 1 - 22°C | Day 2 - 22°C | Day 3 - 21°C
The reading above are for three consecutive days from a wet and dry bulb hygrometer. It can be concluded that the relative humidity for the three days
decreased steadily
remained unchanged
increased steadily
was least on Day 1
Explanation
1 | 2 | 3 | |
Dry | 30°C | 29°C | 25°C |
Wet | 22°C | 22°C |
21°C |
Diff |
8°C | 7°C | 4°C |
\(Relative Humidity \propto \frac{1}{temp}\)
Hence, There is a steady increase in the relative humidity between Day 1 and Day 3
