A students uses a sling psychrometer to measure the humidity of the air. If the relative humidity was 65% and the dry-bulb temperature was 10 C, what was the wet-bulb temperature?

a. 5c
b. 7c
c. 3c
d. 10c

Answer:

I believe it is B. 7c

Explanation:

I believe it is B because to find the relative humidity you have to subtract the wet bulb by the dry bulb and half of 10 would be 5 and half of 100 is 50. So 65 is more than half and 7 is more than half. Hope this helps!

The wet-bulb temperature will be 3° C.Temperature is the degree of hotness and coldness.

What is temperature?

Temperature directs to the hotness or coldness of a body. In clear terms, it is the method of finding the kinetic energy of particles within an entity. Faster the motion of particles more the temperature.

The given data in the problem is;

R is the relative humidity was 65%

[tex]\rm T[/tex] is the dry-bulb temperature = 10° C

[tex]\rm T_w[/tex] is the wet-bulb temperature =?

The expression for the wet-bulb temperature is found as;

[tex]\rm T_w= T-\frac{100-R}{5} \\\\ T_w= T-\frac{100-65}{5} \\\\ \rm T_w=10 - 7^0 c \\\\ \rm T_w = 3^0 C[/tex]

The wet-bulb temperature will be 3° C.Hence option C is correct.
