In your own words, what is the relationship between temperature, dew point temperature, and air pressure? Can anyone help, please!
The dew point is the temperature the air would be at if it saturated at the present level of water vapour content - in other words if we cooled air, the point at which is was saturated with water vapour is it's dew point. So dew point is related to air volume which is related to both temperature and pressure. Not accurate figures but if air was at a certain temperature and contained say 80% relative humidity and the air cooled, then eventually (with the same amount of water vapour content) it would reach 100% rH and saturate. That would be the dew point temperature
Thank you, Zach298! This was my answer on my worksheet, I got 100%. "The dew point temperature is the temperature the air would have to cool to reach a relative humidity of 100 percent. While temperature is the degree of hotness or coldness, and how fast the atoms and molecules are moving in the atmosphere. Air pressure is the force of the pressure exerted by all the air molecules over a section of Earth's surface. All three of them increase or decrease together depending on what temperature (hot/cold) they are at. "
@studyguy2019tim you're welcome anytime dude!
