When you get into higher altitudes, there are less molecules. Making the pressure less dense. It also has less oxygen molecule, making it harder to breathe.

How does water pressure work?
Water pressure works based on the difference of altitudes or height. The height of the tank determines the amount of pressure that the water supply will have.
What is the relationship between weight and pressure?
Pressure varies with height as a function of specific weight. p=p0+specific weight*height Where height is the distance below the reference pressure p0 (usually at a free surface).
What happens to the pressure inside of a balloon as it floats higher and higher?
The atmospheric pressure go on falling. So the pressure in the balloon. It takes lot of height to get the pressure reduced. I mean, the reduction in the pressure can not be easily measured for short height.
How high do you need to go for your ears to pop?
don't technically have to change height it's due to pressure variation, which can occur to things such as a cold or head phones
Explain hydrostatic pressure?
Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted by a liquid when it is at rest. It is directly proportional to the height of a liquid column of uniform density.
What variables can change air pressure?
Temperature, volume, height , and water vapor are variables that change air pressure.
How would air pressure change as it drive up and then down a Mountain Road?
Air pressure decreases with height.
What kind of treatments are their for height blood pressure?
There is no such thing as "height blood pressure".
How does the air pressure change between the bottom of the mountain and its summit?
It is pressed by the bottom of the earths crust and pressured up to the top of the mountain and the mountain begins to break. It takes about 500 years to break.
What is the change in a manometer with relation to a change in pressure of gas?
As the Pressure of the gas being measured increases the height of the fluid in the Manometer Tube increases. The reverse is also true. The graduations of the Manometer Tube gives you a reading of the Gas Pressure being measured.
What relation between pressure and height?
Pressure decreases as height increases and vice-versa.
What 3 variables besides water vapor can change air pressure?
Volume,Temperature and height above earth's surface
How does the pressure at sea level change as the distance from earth increases?
Air pressure reduces, as height is gained above sea-level, because there is less air at high altitudes.
Ideal blood pressure for children of 2-8yrs?
I found an interesting article on child's blood pressure. Blood pressure will change as the child grows, height and weight are a determining factor of blood pressure for children. The link is posted below.
What is the term for lake waters rising and falling related to high and low weather pressures?
Water is incompressible and its level (in a LAKE) will not change as a result of an ambient pressure difference. However, in the case of the Ocean or a VERY large body of inland water, a differential pressure caused by differences in atmospheric pressure across the surface of the water will cause height changes. This change in height is called a "storm serge".
How does water pressure work?
Water pressure works based on the difference of altitudes or height. The height of the tank determines the amount of pressure that the water supply will have.
Why pressure difference in two gauges located in different heights?
In a pipe line or vessel if vertically placed and two pressure gauges mounted in top and bottom places of the pipe line and the internal pressure will very. Top mounted pressure gauge is lower than the bottom mounted pressure gauge. The Pressure will change due to the height variation's. The Internel fluid height acting additional pressure . so that the pressure difference in two gauges located in different heights.
