Relative humidity is ratio of vapor pressure ============================================ **Relative humidity** is the ratio of actual water vapor pressure :math:`p` to saturation vapor pressure :math:`p_0` at a given temperature. **Saturation vapor** is vapor in dynamic equilibrium with a liquid or solid of the same composition in a closed system. In such a system, the number of evaporating molecules is equal to the number of condensing molecules per unit time. **Links:** #. `Wikipedia `__. .. py:currentmodule:: symplyphysics.laws.thermodynamics.relative_humidity_is_ratio_of_vapor_pressure .. py:data:: relative_humidity :attr:`~symplyphysics.symbols.thermodynamics.relative_humidity` of air.
