How does permittivity of air change with altitude?

decreases with increasing altitude. as altitude increases so does the distance between the air molecules. increasing distance between air molecules leads to increased resistance to flow.


What is the difference between altitude and air pressure?

Air pressure is the amount of pressure exerted by Earth's atmosphere in a specific place, while altitude is the vertical distance of an object or place from sea level. Air pressure decreases as altitude increases, since there is less atmosphere to exert pressure.


When the distance between the objects decreases the electrical force increase or decreases?

decreases

Why air decreases with an increase in latitude?

It doesn't.Latitude is geography, distance from the equator, and doesn't affect air pressure. Might affect temperature though.However, air pressure decreases with increased altitude =height above sea level.The higher you go, the less air is there above you, pushing down.
