Given a cP air mass and cT air mass with the same relative humidity,which air mass would have higher specific humidity?
A)The specific humidity of both would be the same because their relative humidities are the same.
B)The cP air mass would have the higher specific humidity.
C)The cT air mass would have the higher specific humidity.
D)It is impossible to say what would usually be true of their specific humidities.
