When saturated air is cooled what happens to its dew point

Physics
1 answer:
Eddi Din [679]3 years ago
6 0


When saturated air is cooled, it simply reaches its dew point. Dew point is simply the temperature at which dew begins to form.

Dew point of saturated air is already pre-determined by how much water vapor the air contains. A  state of saturation exists when the air is holding the maximum amount of water vapor possible at the existing temperature and pressure. The higher the dew point, the higher the moisture content of the air. Cooling does not change the dew point of saturated air, rather its the level of saturation. 

So if the air has more moisture, dew will form at a higher temperature and vice versa, but dew point is NEVER EVER GREATER than the air temperature.

A wire loop of radius 0.50 m lies so that an external magnetic field of magnitude 0.40 T is perpendicular to the loop. The field
vazorg [7]

The magnitude of the induced emf is given by:

ℰ = |Δφ/Δt|

ℰ = emf, Δφ = change in magnetic flux, Δt = elapsed time

The magnetic field is perpendicular to the loop, so the magnetic flux φ is given by:

φ = BA

B = magnetic field strength, A = loop area

The area of the loop A is given by:

A = πr²

r = loop radius

Make a substitution:

φ = B2πr²

Since the strength of the magnetic field is changing while the radius of the loop isn't changing, the change in magnetic flux Δφ is given by:

Δφ = ΔB2πr²

ΔB = change in magnetic field strength

Make another substitution:

ℰ = |ΔB2πr²/Δt|

Given values:

ΔB = 0.20T - 0.40T = -0.20T, r = 0.50m, Δt = 2.5s

Plug in and solve for ℰ:

ℰ = |(-0.20)(2π)(0.50)²/2.5|

ℰ = 0.13V

The outer surface of a spacecraft in space has an emissivity of 0.44 and a solar absorptivity of 0.3. If solar radiation is inci
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

T=326.928K

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Emissivity e=0.44

Absorptivity \alpha =0.3

Rate of solar Radiation R=0.3

Generally the equation for Surface absorbed energy is mathematically given by

 E=\alpha R

 E=0.3*950

 E=285W/m^2

Generally the equation for Emitted Radiation is mathematically given by

 \mu=e(\sigmaT^4)

Where

T=Temperature

 \sigma=5.67*10^8Wm^{-2}K_{-4}

Therefore

 \alpha*E=e \sigma T^4

 0.3*(950)=0.44(5.67*10^-8)T^4

 T=326.928K
