Suppose the average vapor pressure in Nevada is about 8 mb.

(a) Use Table 1 (p. 106) to determine the average dew point of this air.

(b) Much of the state is above an elevation of 1500 m (5000 ft). At 1500 m, the normal pressure is about 12.5 percent less than at sea level. If the air over Nevada were brought down to sea level, without any change in vapor content, what would be the new water vapor pressure of the air?
