1 Due tomorrow before class starts: Definition of all vocab words in Chapter 11, Section 2 Temperature Versus Heat Skip about 4-5 lines in-between each vocab word. There are a total of 4 words.

2 What are the 3 ways that the atmosphere is heated?
Camp Greenville $$ 11/8 Old Flashback Sheet

3 Temperature vs. Heat – not the same thing!
Temperature: a measurement of how rapidly or slowly molecules move around Heat: is the transfer of energy

4 Dew Point The dew point is the temperature to which air must be cooled at constant pressure to teach saturation Saturation is the point at which the air holds as much water vapor as it possibly can Dew point is important because until air is saturated, condensation cannot occur

5 There is always water in the air in the form of water vapor.
Water Vapor in the Air There is always water in the air in the form of water vapor.

6 Relative Humidity The amount of water vapor in the air is called humidity The ratio of water vapor in a volume of air relative to how much water vapor that air is capable of holding is called relative humidity. help with relative humidity and dew point charts

7 The lower the % of relative humidity, the dryer the air – probably nice weather

8 The lower the % of relative humidity, the dryer the air – probably nice weather
The closer the dew point and dry-bulb temperature, the wetter the air - potentially rain in the forecast

9 Measuring Relative humidity and dew point
