Chapter 15.3, Problem 9E
A hygrothermograph is used by the weather services to record temperature and relative humidity (see Illustration 5). The lower part of the graph is used to measure relative humidity from 0% to 100%. The upper part of the graph is used to measure temperature from
F to
F. For example, at 8:00 P.M., the temperature was
F, and the relative humidity was 82%.
