When does air pressure increase?

as you move lower into the atmosphere


Why does air in the atmosphere move?

Temperature differences is why air moves in the atmosphere. Hot air rises, cold air falls. With these temperature difference comes pressure differences and these temp. and pressure differences are what keep the air moving. Theoretically, if there were no temp. or pressure differences in the atmosphere, air would not move.


Does air pressure change in the atmosphere?

Yes, it does.


How does air pressure change in the atmosphere as the altitude change?

By farting


Does air pressure change with altitude?

The higher up you are the lesser the air pressure in the atmosphere.


How does atmosphere pressure change as you move up from sea level?

as you move up from sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases. At higher elevations, theres less air above you so therefor less air pressure. When the air pressure outside your body decreases, the air pressure inside also decreases (slowly).


Does air pressure increase or decrease as you move up into the atmosphere?

Air pressure decreases as you go up.


When you inhale does pressure decrease inside or increase?

The act of inhaling is to create low pressure in the lungs, causing the air in the atmosphere to rush in as it is moving from a higher pressure (outside in the atmosphere) to the lower pressure (created in the lungs). However the fact that air does move into the lungs means that there is no net change in pressure.


As rising in atmosphere air pressure increases?

No. Air pressure decreases as you move up in the atmosphere. This is because air has mass and weight like everything else, and as you rise up in the atmosphere there is less air above you.


Why does the air pressure change the altitude in the atmosphere?

As the amount of air above us decreases...the air pressure decreases.


How does air pressure change altitude in the atmosphere?

air grows thinner so it gives less pressure on the earth's surface
