explain the various types of condensation
Answers
the above attachment is your answer hope it helps u dear....
Answer:
Dew: the water droplets formed by condensation of water vapor on a relatively cold surface of an object. It forms when the temperature of an object drops below the dew point temperature.
Frost: the ice crystals formed by deposition of water vapor on a relatively cold surface of an object. It forms when the temperature of an object drops below the frost point temperature.
Fog: a suspended tiny water droplets or ice crystals in an air layer next to the Earth's surface that reduces the visibility to 1000 m (3250 ft.) or lower. For aviation purposes, the criterion for fog is 10 km (6.2 mi.) or less. If the visibility is higher than those limits, the suspension is called mist.
Evaporation (Steam) fog: a ground-level cloud induced by mixing. It occurs when cold, dry air comes in contact with the relatively warm water. Over the ocean in polar regions where the air is extremely cold during winter, stream fog is referred to as arctic sea smoke. Stream fog also develops on a cold day over a heated outdoor swimming pool or over a warm lake in early autumn.
Cloud: a visible aggregate of tiny water droplets or ice crystals or a mixture of both suspended in the air. It forms when the condensation (or deposition) of water vapor meets supersaturation conditions (that is, relative humidity greater than 100%) within the air that is free of dust and other aerosols. Within the atmosphere, at most, only a slight supersaturation conditions are necessary for cloud development.
