5. Nathan is helping prepare a large meal for a family gathering. After cooking for several hours, henotices the windows inside the kitchen are covered in moisture. Which answer best explains how thishappened?A. Evaporated moisture is condensing on the windows.B. Heating up the house will make moisture evaporate from the windows.C. It is raining outside and hot and dry inside, so water condenses inside the windows.D. Having many people in a house causes water to form condensation on the windows.Explanation:

Option (A) best depicts the problem. Evaporating moisture is condensing on windows.

As air rises in the atmosphere, its temperature drops, even if no heat flows out of it. (a) Based on what you learned in Sections 4.4 and 5.3, explain why this is so. (b) Cumulus clouds form when rising air is cooled to the point where water droplets form because of condensation. Why are these clouds usually much higher above the ground in dry climates than in wet ones?
. On a winter day, the air temperature is — 15°C, and the humidity is 0,001 kg/m3. (a) What is the relative humidity? (b) When this air is brought inside a building, it is heated to 20°C. If the humidity isn't changed, what is the relative humidity inside the building?
In winters, if is often warmer in San Francisco than in nearby Sacramento, 150 km inland. In summers, it is nearly always hotter in Sacramento. Explain how the bodies of water surrounding San Francisco moderate its extreme temperatures.
The dwarf planet Pluto has an average surface temperature of 44 K and an escape speed (divided by six) of 0.2 km/s. Based on Figure 5.5, which gases, if any, would this body be likely to have retained as an atmospheric constituent over the past 3 billion years?
One of the honest temperatures ever recorded on the surface at Earth was 134F in Death Valley, CA. What is this temperature in Celsius degrees? What is this temperature in Kelvin?
In my humid climates where there are numerous bodies of water, such as in Florida, it is unusual for temperatures to rise above about 35C(95F). In deserts, however, temperatures can rise far above this. Explain how the evaporation of water helps limit high temperatures in humid climates.
Explain why the Moon and Mercury possess only very weak, transient atmospheres consisting of constituents temporarily captured from the solar wind or released by collisions with interplanetary debris.
1. On a sunny day, Emma is cutting branches from a tree in her yard. At midday, she takes a break, leaving a pile of branches and leaves on the ground. When she returns and gathers the branches, she notices the leaves are wilted and crisp. Which of the following correctly describes what happened to the leaves? A. The trees had not received water for a long time before being cut. B. The warm temperature caused moisture to evaporate from the leaves. C. The nutrients cannot reach the leaves if the tree's branches are not upright. D. The leaves had been covered in frost the week before, but had not wilted until now. Explanation:
