Textbook Question
Chapter 11, Problem 4PE
People living in arid, dry, regions can cool their house using evaporative cooling. Use the kinetic molecular theory to explain what factors make this method of cooling less useful in more temperate climates. (Hint: Recall the explanation of heat transfer in Section 6.2.)
