Textbook Question

Chapter 6, Problem 9E

The nonlinear relationship between temperature and saturation makes it possible for two unsaturated air samples to mix and form a new saturated air sample. Jet contrails are one example of this as warm exhaust containing moisture mixes with cold air. Some contrails disappear quickly, others linger. What do you think determines the life span of a contrail?
