Rate of evaporation of water

A

is more in coastal area than in non-coatal area.

B

is more in non-coastal area than in coatal area.

C

is the same in both caostal and non-coastal areas.

D

Cannot be predicted.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Rate of evaporation is inversely proportional to humidity. In non-coastal areas humidity is less compared to coastal areas, and hence rate of evaporation of water is more in a non-coastal area compared to coastal area.

A child running a temperature of 101^F is given and antipyrin (i.e. a madicine that lowers fever) which cause an increase in the rate of evaporation of sweat from his body. If the fever is brought down to 98^@F in 20 min., what is the averatge rate of extra evaporation caused, by the drug ? Assume the evaporation mechanism to the only way by which heat is lost. The mass of the child is 30 kg. The specific heat of human body is approximately the same as that of water and latent heat of evaporation of water at that temperature is about 580 cal. g^(-1).

The process of evaporation of water in the ground is called infiltration.
