Why is sound not heard from a long distance?
Sound is a compressional wave , i.e , pressure. you do understand that pressure is F/A.Thus when A increases the pressure decreases. Now sound waves looks like a circle where its center is the origin of the sound and the circle gets bigger as we go further from its center this means that the area covered increases and the sound compressional waves ( pressure) decreases. Distance effects sound because sounds moves by bumping into other particles and momentum is lost every time they bump because it creates heat and so one
What happens to pressure and temperature as depth decreases?
Temperature increases due to the fact that the center of the earth is magma. No humans or machine could actually get close enough to it to be able to tell. This is why high mountain tops are generally colder then sea level.
What air movement of air that causes the winds?
The movement revolves around the Low Pressure System. At the center of a Low, air rises. That air descends in High Pressure Systems, that exist wherever Lows do not. This means that the Low Pressure System is the active feature of the [lower 10 km's of the] Atmosphere.
Why does air pressure crush the can?
The very similiar effect that causes a nuclear exposion, but not to that effect. The air is removed creating a vacuum but there cannot be empty space so the air stretches to fill the void. Now if the metal can is sturdy enough to hold up enough pressure, the air molecules will stretch so far that they split apart, therefore causing a nuclear explosion. Please don't try this.
How does the pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center of the earth?
its cause when you go down the air gets to thin and you get all happy and ur voice gets hi
Pressure increases with depth toward the center of the earth in which layer would you expect pressure to be the greatest?
At the very center.
Why does the exosphere have the least amount of pressure?
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. Matter is held by gravity. The same reason that pressure is greatest in the core, the least pressure is farthest from the core. Matter "thins - out". The heaviest elements are always in the center and the lightest are furthest from the center.

What happens to the pressure as you travel toward the center of the earth?
pressure increases and "bunches up"
Where does the sun convert matter into energhy?
This happens at the Sun's center, where both the temperature and the pressure are greatest.This happens at the Sun's center, where both the temperature and the pressure are greatest.This happens at the Sun's center, where both the temperature and the pressure are greatest.This happens at the Sun's center, where both the temperature and the pressure are greatest.
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
How does a disabled vasomotor center affect blood pressure?
Damage to your vasomotor center increases blood pressure.
Does pressure increase or decrease as you travel to the center of the earth?
It increases. The closer you get to the Earth's core - the higher the pressure (and temperature).
Where on earth is the pressure the greatest?
In the core - right in the center of the Earth.
How does air pressure and air temperature change as you travel towards the center of a hurricane?
Air pressure decreases while temperature increases.
Does pressure increase or decrease in deep water?
I'm not quite sure, but I would say that pressure does increase as you near the center of the Earth. Some argue that when you reach the center, there would be no pressure because of the equal amount of weight on each side. My question is...is the weight equal on every side. If not, then there would be pressure inside the core of the Earth.
