Air pressure falls of as one gains altitude. At high altitude the air pressure is very low but it does not "falls drastically", which implies a sudden change.

Why at high altitude packets of chips are tight?
because of high altitude. The pressure is less at higher altitudes so the air trapped in the bag expands making the bag feel tight.
Why jet engines are flown on high altitudes?
Reasons of efficiency. not the least of which is that the pressure generated in the combustion chamber has to fight less "back pressure" (think of it as pressure resistance) at high altitude because the air-pressure is less.
At what altitude does a High-Altitude Burst detonate?
Above 100,000 feet altitude (20 miles).
When and where was the first space suites invented?
Early US space suits were adapted from pressure suits designed for pilots of high altitude military and experimental aircraft.
What are high altitude clouds made of?
water
How changes in altitude affect pressure?
At high altitude the pressure is lower.
Is the pressure high or low at high altitude?
it is low. due to gravity
Is air pressure the same at high altitudes?
No, it is not. The pressure decreases as the altitude increases.
High pressure equals high altitude equals warm air?
Exactly!
What are cabins with normal air pressure at high altitudes?
high altitude chambers
Why do nose bleed at high altitude?
because the pressure is high and temperature is low
Why Nose bleeds at high altitude?
because the pressure is high and temperature is low
Why do airplanes get faster at high altitude?
less oxegen levels and air pressure.
How does high altitude effect the freeze point of water?
different air pressure...
How does atmospheric parameters affect aircraft's lift and drag force generation while gaining altitude?
Temperature - low temperature gains altitude quicker Pressure - High pressure gains altitude quicker Density - Low density gains altitude quicker
Can high altitude affect you anywhere there would be high altitude?
well the air pressure decreases as you go higher up and so does the temperature due to the warm air expanding and cooling. so yes high altitude affects you anywhere
How do you boil water at a high altitude?
At a high altitude, water reaches its boiling point at a lower temperature because of a lower air pressure holding it in its liquid form.
