Question
Chapter 15.3A, Problem 3A
Summary Introduction
The relative humidity for each of the situations in which the water-vapor content remains unchanged, but air temperature varies.
Introduction:
The relative humidity is the ratio of water vapors that are present in the air to the maximum amount of water vapors that can be held in the air at a particular temperature. Addition of water vapors increases the relative humidity.
