🔍 Key Concepts

• Dew point is when air is saturated and cannot hold more water vapor • The wet bulb temperature is always related to evaporation and cooling compared to the dry bulb temperature • At saturation, the relationship between wet bulb and dry bulb temperatures changes in a specific, simple way

💭 Think About

• Think about what happens to the difference between wet bulb and dry bulb temperatures as the air gets more and more humid • At the exact moment the air becomes saturated (reaches dew point), what happens to evaporation from the wet bulb thermometer? • If evaporation stops, what does that imply about the temperatures read by the two thermometers?

✅ Before You Answer

• Recall whether wet bulb temperature can ever be higher than dry bulb under normal conditions • Consider what happens to the temperature difference between wet bulb and dry bulb as relative humidity approaches 100% • Eliminate any choices that would require an impossible physical situation for thermometers in air.
