EXERCISE 16 PROBLEMS-PART (English Units) Answer the following questions after completing the problems in Part III. You will also need to refer to the table of Saturation Mixing Ratios in Figure 15-1: interpolate from the chart as needed. Assume that condensation begins at 100% relative humidity and that no evaporation takes place as the parcel descends 5. On the windward side of the mountain, should the relative humidity of the parcel change as it rises from 3000 feet to 6000 feet? (a) (b) Why? 6. As the air rises up the windward side of the mountain What is the capacity (saturation mixing ratio) of the rising air at 3000 feet? (a) g/kg (b) What is the capacity of the air at 6000 feet? g/kg What is the capacity of the air after it has descended back down to sea level on the lee side of the mountain? 7. g/kg 8. (a) Assuming that no water vapor is added as the parcel descends down the lee side of the mountain to sea level, is the water vapor content (the mixing ratio) of the parcel higher or lower than before it began to rise over the mountain? (b) Why? , F10 FS Backspace

Explanation / Answer

the capacity (saturation missing ratio) of the rising air at 3000 feet

.1 g/kgthe capacity of air at 6000 ft will be 7.65 feet
