True or false? The wet bulb will never be greater than the dry bulb?
AnswerClick to flip back
A
True
💡 Explanation:
Evaporation is a cooling process, so the wet-bulb temperature will always be lower than or equal to the dry-bulb temperature. It can only equal the dry-bulb temperature when the relative humidity is 100% and no evaporation occurs.
