Questions and Answers

What effect does the latent heat in water vapor have on the cooling of air during condensation?

It accelerates the cooling of the air.

It causes the air to cool at the dry adiabatic rate.

It has no impact on the cooling of the air.

It slows down the cooling of the air. (correct)

Why would a sinking saturated air containing water droplets warm at the moist adiabatic rate?

As a result of evaporating liquid droplets. (correct)

Due to the expansion of the air.

Because of the heating effect of rising temperatures.

Because of the release of latent heat during compression.

What occurs when prolonged cooling of air leads to condensation?

Evaporation increases.

Latent heat is released. (correct)

Latent heat is absorbed.

The air warms up.
