Air pressure reduces, as height is gained above sea-level, because there is less air at high altitudes.

What happens to air pressure as distance from earth's surface increases?
the air pressure increases
Explain what hppens to air pressure as you move away from the earths surface?
Pressure increases as you get closer to earth.
What happens to the density whenyou move toward the earth's core?
Density increases as you go deeper into the earth.
Describe Earths atmosphere at sea levelHow does the pressure change as the distance from earth increases?
It decreases not just because of gravity. The pressure decreases because there is less air above you. As you increase your altitude, just like if you were coming up from deep under the water, there will be less fluid on top of you pushing down, so the pressure will decrease.
Sound will travel fastest in air at?
The speed of sound increases with pressure, so close to the Earth's surface.
What happens to air pressure as distance from earth's surface increases?
the air pressure increases
How does pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center if the earth?
The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure
How does pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center if earth?
The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure
What happens to the pressure of the earth as depth below the surface increases?
the pressure decreases the pressure increases
What describes how temperature and pressure change with depth below Earth's surface?
Both temperature and pressure increase with depth.
How does pressure change as you go deeper in to the earth?
it changes as you go deeper because the more you go down the pressure is harder because of all of the rocks and the temperature change because of the mantle, inner core, and the outer core but mostly out of the inner core.
How is the water in the swimming pool similar to earth's interior?
Pressure inside Earth increases much like pressure in the swimming pool increases.
What happen with temperature and pressure as earth's depth increases?
Both temperature and pressure increase as depth increases.
Explain what hppens to air pressure as you move away from the earths surface?
Pressure increases as you get closer to earth.
How does density change between the different layers of earth?
The deeper you get into the earth, the more weight you have above you. This results in pressure that increases the density of the material below.
When drilling into the earth the pressure increases?
It definitely does!
Does pressure vary inside earth?
Yes, the pressure increases with depth.
