Is air pressure in a cave greater than air pressure at sea level?

It all depends on the altitude of the cave.
Note, a sealed cave can be pressurized, but as soon as it is opened the pressure will equalize.

When the air pressure in the lungs is greater than the air pressure outside the body you?
at higher altitudes the pressure of air is greater in our lungs as compare to the air pressure outside the body
Is air pressure greater than water pressure?
Technically, yes, but so slightly that you'd never notice it. Remember, the gravitational forces between you and anything else depend on your mass, the other mass, and the distance between them. When you're in water, there is more mass closer to you than there is when you're in air.
What pressure for a chemical or solution is considered an explosive hazard?
when the vapor pressure is greater than 5 mm
What is a hydrated crystal that has a water vapor pressure greater than the vapor pressure of air is called?
A delisquiscent.
Is air pressure at the equator greater than at the north pole?
ilknjikn
Is the strongest pressure at the deepest part of the ocean is about 1000 times greater than that found at sea level?
true
What level of oxygen pressure is appropriate for infants?
PaO2 (partial pressure of oxygen) levels greater than 80 mm Hg should be avoided.
Why is the pressure under water greater than the pressure at the surface?
The weight of air in the Earthâ??s atmosphere is 1 kg per square centimeter at sea level. The pressure under water is greater that the pressure at the surface because of the water pressing down heavily.
Cold drinks are bottled under a carbon dioxide gas pressure greater than 1 atmosphere why not more gas or less than that gas?
1 atm pressure is considered as standard and is atmospheric pressure at sea level.
What happens when pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied to pure water or a solution?
If a pressure greater than atmospheric pressure is applied to a solution or pure water, its water potential increases
Is air pressure greater at sea level or on top of a mountain?
Air pressure is greater at sea level because there is more air above that is pressing down. Any atmosphere is more dense at the surface of the planet than at locations higher in altitude. (Areas that are lower than sea level will generally have still higher atmospheric pressure.)
When swimming under water pressure becomes greater?
Yes. The water pressure exerted on your body is greater than air pressure, and increases with depth.
Why Poes water on top of a mountain boil at a lower temperature than at sea level?
It is the effect of air pressure. The air pressure at the top of a mountain is less than the air pressure at sea level. The effect of air pressure on a water surface is to prevent or oppose water molecules escaping from the surface. The greater the air pressure, the more heat energy is needed to allow the water molecules to escape and so at sea level the water will boil at a higher temperature than if it were on top of a mountain.
Is intrapulmonary pressure greater than or less than?
Yes, typically it is.
When the air pressure in the lungs is greater than the air pressure outside the body you?
at higher altitudes the pressure of air is greater in our lungs as compare to the air pressure outside the body
When can liquid water remain above 100 degrees Celsius?
Water can remain liquid at a temperature above 100 degrees, C., when the pressure on it is greater than the pressure found at average sea level.
When the pressure at the bottom of a submerged object is greater than the pressure at the top of the submerged object a buoyant force is producE?
Greater than ~ Apexfalse - apex;)
