How does air pressure changes altitude increases?
It decreases. Air pressure is simply the pressure of all the other air on top of it. As you increase in elevation, there is less air on top of you. Therefore, the air pressure is less. As your altitude decreases, there is more air on top of you, therefore, the air pressure increases. Same with water. As you descend, water pressure increases. More on top of you.
How is The wheather in mteverest?
Cold with very low pressure. The higher you go up it, the colder and less pressure there is.
Is ther more air pressure at the top of a mountain or a beach?
There is more air pressure at a beach compared to the top of a mountain. Air pressure decreases with increasing altitude, so the air pressure at the top of a mountain is lower than at sea level like a beach.
Why does the top of a mountain have greater air pressure?
The top of a mountain has lower air pressure, not greater air pressure, compared to lower elevations. This is because the higher you go in elevation, the thinner the atmosphere becomes, leading to lower air pressure due to decreased atmospheric density.
Is there a greater or lesser air pressure on top of the wing when lift occurs?
There is lesser air pressure on top of the wing when lift occurs. This is due to the shape of the wing causing the air to move faster over the top surface, resulting in lower air pressure according to Bernoulli's principle.
Why is air pressure at the top of a chimney less tan air pressure at the bottom?
Hot air rises
What is the air pressure of top of your head?
The air pressure at the top of our heads is the same as the air pressure at any other point at the same elevation above sea level. The air pressure decreases with increasing altitude due to the weight of the air above pushing down on the air below, creating the atmospheric pressure we experience.
Where is air pressure strongest?
On top of a mountain
Why would the top of a mountain have a low air pressure?
The higher you are in the atmosphere, the lower the air pressure. Seeing that the top of a mountain is quite high, the air pressure is low; the air is thinner. This is why you need oxygen tanks to reach the top of Mount Everest
Is it true When a bird flies the air pressure on the top of its wings is lower than the air pressure below?
yes
What should a person expect to happen to the air pressure as they move from the base of a mountain to the top of the mountain?
As a person moves from the base to the top of a mountain, the air pressure decreases. This is because there is less air above you at higher altitudes, resulting in lower pressure due to decreased atmospheric density.
Why is air pressure at the top of a chimney less than air pressure at the bottom?
Smoke rises up the chimney partly because hot air rises and partly because it is pushed wind blowing across the top of a chimney lowers the air pressure there the higher pressure at the bottom pushes air and smoke up the chimney
