Question

In the context of the Saturated Adiabatic Rate (SAR or SALR), what does "T" represent, and what does Relative Humidity (RH) equal when the air reaches saturation?

A) "T" represents Temperature; RH equals 100% at saturation
B) "T" represents Thermal Energy; RH equals 50% at saturation
C) "T" represents Time; RH equals 0% at saturation
D) "T" represents Turbulence; RH equals 75% at saturation

Answer 1

In the context of the Saturated Adiabatic Rate (SAR or SALR), 'T' represents Temperature. At saturation, the Relative Humidity (RH) equals 100%.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the context of the Saturated Adiabatic Rate (SAR or SALR), 'T' represents Temperature.

At saturation, the Relative Humidity (RH) equals 100%. This means that the air is saturated with water vapor and the partial pressure of water is equal to the vapor pressure.
