Consider that specific heat (0 to \(50~^\circ\mathrm{C}\)) of water, water vapour and air remains constant: \(4.48\), \(1.88\) and \(1.0~\mathrm{kJ/(kg\^\circ C)}\), respectively. Assuming the heat energy required to convert \(1~\mathrm{kg}\) of water to water vapour at \(0~^\circ\mathrm{C}\) is \(2000~\mathrm{kJ}\), the enthalpy (in kJ/kg dry air) of atmospheric air containing \(0.05~\mathrm{kg}\) water vapour per kg dry air at \(50~^\circ\mathrm{C}\) is ________.
