Relative humidity is given by (where pv = Partial pressure of water vapour, pb = Barometric pressure, ps = Pressure of saturated air, pd = Pressure at dry bulb temperature, pw = Saturation pressure corresponding to wet bulb temperature and = Degree of saturation)

Relative humidity is given by (where pv = Partial pressure of water vapour, pb = Barometric pressure, ps = Pressure of saturated air, pd = Pressure at dry bulb temperature, pw = Saturation pressure corresponding to wet bulb temperature and = Degree of saturation)
A.
B.
Answer
C.
D.
None of these

Answer: Option B

Solution

Answer: Option B
Solution:
Relative humidity is given by
Where
pv = Partial pressure of water vapour,
pb = Barometric pressure,
ps = Pressure of saturated air,
pd = Pressure at dry bulb temperature,
pw = Saturation pressure corresponding to wet bulb temperature,
= Degree of saturation
