What has the same meaning as air pessure?
Atmospheric Pressure means the same. It is a synonym for air pressure.
Which air has greater air pressure?
Cooler air has greater air pressure since the air molecules are denser, meaning they are close together. Warmer air has lower air pressure for the opposite reason.
What is the same meaning as air pressure?
the force exerted onto a surface by the weight of the air
What is one property of air?
Air is compressible, meaning its volume can change in response to changes in pressure.
Where does the air pressure acting on your roof of your house come from?
Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air in the atmosphere above pushing down on the roof of your house. The pressure decreases as elevation increases, meaning higher altitudes experience lower air pressure.
Why is air pressure higher at the foot of a hill than the top of the hill?
Because it is colder meaning the air is thinner which then results in it compacting together so the pressure is higher !
Why doesn't all the air pressure squash us?
Our bodies contain fluids and solids that are incompressible, meaning they cannot be easily squeezed together. Additionally, the air pressure inside our bodies matches the external air pressure, preventing us from being squashed by the atmospheric pressure.
When air pressuer increases what does the mercury in the barometer do?
Air is "pushed" into the open end of a barometer when the pressure is higher, meaning the mercury closer to the closed end of the barometer - where the pressure is measured - will rise.
Why does atmospheric pressure decrease as you ascend in altitude on Earth?
As you go higher in altitude, the air becomes less dense, meaning there are fewer air molecules above you exerting pressure. This decrease in air density leads to a decrease in atmospheric pressure as you ascend in altitude on Earth.
What do you call a scientist who studies clouds the wind and air pressure?
A person who studies air is called an aerologist, aer meaning air
How is earths air pressure different from seas air pressure?
It is different in that the seas don't have air pressure. No air; no air pressure.
The boiling point of a liquid can change with air?
The boiling point of a liquid can change with air pressure. As air pressure decreases, the boiling point of a liquid also decreases, meaning it will boil at a lower temperature. Conversely, as air pressure increases, the boiling point of the liquid increases, requiring a higher temperature to boil.
