Question 497Deck General70% to pass
Using the available references, if the dry bulb temperature is 55°F (13°C) and the wet bulb is 50°F (10°C), what is the relative humidity?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) 82%.
To determine the relative humidity given the dry bulb and wet bulb temperatures, we can use a psychrometric chart or a formula. In this case, with a dry bulb temperature of 55°F (13°C) and a wet bulb temperature of 50°F (10°C), the relative humidity is approximately 82%.
The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately reflect the relative humidity based on the provided temperatures. Option A) 55% is too low, option B) 70% is too low, and option C) 75% is also too low for the given conditions.
