Psychrometry deals with the properties of gas-vapor mixture. Humidity can be determined by the measurement of the ________________ of a fibre ?

Correct answer: A. Electrical resistance

  • A. Electrical resistance
  • B. Thermal conductivity
  • C. Strength
  • D. None of these

Explanation

Moisture changes the electrical resistance of hygroscopic fibres, so fibre-resistance hygrometers can indicate humidity. Thermal conductivity is used in some gas analysers, but it is not the usual fibre-based measurement.
