Sudden change in air pressure might lead to death. Sudden change in air pressure will disrupt the blood and air circulation within your body. You might feel dizzy and have nose-bleeding in such cases.

Does the pressure inside your body balance the air pressure outside your body?

Somewhat. If you were to ride in an airplane without being in a pressurized cabin you might die because of drastically low air pressure. We are only built to live on land, but we are also built to withstand change in air pressure when walking a hill or climbing a mountain. The pressure also changes with weather and climate change. So again, our body balances the air pressure outside up to a certain extent.

What is an aircraft cabin air pressure regulator?

It maintains the cabin pressure to the air pressure at 8000 ft. Without pressurization, you would get hypoxia (The Lack Of Oxygen) Get light headed, pass out, then possibly die. As you go higher the atmospheric pressure drops. Payne Webber the Golfer died when the cabin pressure regulator failed.


Why don't you feel the weight of the air above you?

You do, you are just in the same pressure every day, and your body adapts to the conditions. For example, if you are in an airplane, they must pressurize the cabin so that the passengers don't all die from oxygen deprivation or similar ailments. When your ears "pop" after ascending or descending, that is your inner ear adjusting to the change in the weight of the air above you, the "atmospheric pressure".

What happens when air is cold?

Well, what happens,A lot of things happen. But, if you mean what happens because the air is cold, plants die, animals die, some say it's easier to breathe. (And it's usually cold when the barometric pressure is high.)


Why does air expand as it moves upward through the atmosphere?

Air expands when it rises because of the pressure and temperature. While air rises, there is less compression and pressure on nearby air, so it expands, it's not as tight. Air also takes space. Think of it as units of stuff. People in mountains normally die because of the expanded air which is too thin to breathe, because all the molecules are apart and running away.
