humidity dash the process of humidity

Answer 1

Answer:

What is Humidity?

Easily stated humidity is simply the amount of water vapor held in the air. Water vapor is the gaseous state of water. As the temperature of the air increases more water vapor can be held since the movement of molecules at higher temperatures prevents condensation from occurring.

There are three main measurements of humidity: relative, absolute and and specific.

Absolute humidity (units are grams of water vapor per cubic meter volume of air) is a measure of the actual amount of water vapor in the air, regardless of the air's temperature. The higher the amount of water vapor, the higher the absolute humidity. For example, a maximum of about 30 grams of water vapor can exist in a cubic meter volume of air with a temperature in the middle 80s.

Relative humidity, expressed as a percent, is a measure of the amount of water vapor that air is holding compared the the amount it can hold at a specific temperature. Warm air can possess more water vapor (moisture) than cold air, so with the same amount of absolute/specific humidity, air will have a higher relative humidity. A relative humidity of 50% means the air holds on that day (specific temperature) holds 50% of water needed for the air to be saturated. Saturated air has a relative humidity of 100%.

The relative humidity of an air-water mixture is also defined as the ratio of the partial pressure of water vapor in the mixture to the saturated vapor pressure of water at a given temperature (See what is vapor pressure). Thus the relative humidity of air is a function of both water content and temperature.

Specific humidity refers to the weight of water vapor contained in a unit weight (amount) of air (expressed as grams of water vapor per kilogram of air). Absolute and specific humidity are quite similar in concept.

Answer 2

${\huge{\mathcal\red{Answer}}}$

The water content in the atmosphere is called humidity .

The actual amount of water present in the atmosphere is called absolute humidity . It is measured as the amount of water vapour present per cubic metre volume of air (g/m³) .

Factors influencing the amount of moisture present in the air :

✓Temperature

✓Time

✓Water bodies

There is a limit to the amount of water vapour the atmosphere can hold at a certain temperature . The stage at which the atmosphere is fully saturated with water is termed as saturation level .
