What happens in the density of the air as you ascend in the atmosphere?
It decreases
As you go higher into the atmosphere the density of the air?
decreases
How do particles make a hot air balloon work?
The hot air has a density under the density of cold air. And so up in the atmosphere.
How does the density of air change from lower to higher in altitudes?
The density of air decreases as altitude increases.
Why does a change in density of the air make the balloon ascend?
A gas of low density has the tendence to ascend.
When altitude increases does air density?
The density of the atmosphere decreases with altitude.
What happens to air as density increases?
-- The density of a closed jar full of air doesn't change, no matter how high you take it. -- The density of the open air in the atmosphere that's all around you decreases steadily as your altitude increases.
What happens if your density is lighter than the density of air?
you will start to float upwards in the atmosphere. The density of air decreases as you go higher in the atmosphere. You will stop going upwards when you reach a height where the air density is the same as your density.
Does the density of the earth's atmosphere increase with altitude?
The atmosphere becomes less dense with altitude. Atmosphere, thin though it is, has weight, and it is the weight of the air above which compresses the air below it, to greater density.
What layer of air has greatest density of gases?
atmosphere
As you go higher into the atmosphere the density of the air?
decreases
What happens in the density of the air as you ascend in the atmosphere?
It decreases
How does air density in the thermosphere change?
As you go though the atmoshpere, the density of the air decreases. This means the gas molecules that make up the atmosphere are farther apart at high altitudes then they are at sea level. Noah Bazoo
How do particles make a hot air balloon work?
The hot air has a density under the density of cold air. And so up in the atmosphere.
How would heat change the density of a parcel of air?
how heat would change the density of a parcel of air?
When air pressure is constant throughout a region of the atmosphere the region is in a state is called what?
When air pressure is constant throughout a region of the atmosphere the region is in a state is called equilibrium.
What change happens in the outside air as an airplane flies higher in the atmosphere?
The atmosphere is densest at sea level, so as the density of air goes down, so does the atmospheric pressure. The atmosphere gets less and less dense as you rise higher above the sea level.
