Water Vapor is Important:
Water Vapor is Important Helps warm atmosphere Comfortable breathing – moistens respiratory passages Helps to form clouds
Measuring Humidity:
Measuring Humidity The relative humidity can change if the amount of moisture changes or if the temperature changes. RELATIVE HUMIDITY : The relative humidity tells % of water vapor
Calculating Relative Humidity:
Calculating Relative Humidity The relative humidity is the percent of saturation Saturation – 100% humidity relative humidity = actual amount of water vapor saturation amount of water vapor 100% x 100 50%
