If the air pressure gets higher does it mean that there are more molecules pressing down?
quite right. Air pressure is the result of millions of air molecules impinging on the surface per unit area. The higher the air pressure, the higher the number of strikes from air molecules.
What happens when air pressure is cooled?
When the air is cooled it mostly rains
Why does it get colder the higher you go to the mountain?
It gets colder the higher you climb a mountain because of the lower air pressure.
What happens to air pressure when the temperature changes?
air pressure becomes less in cold tempuratures
What happens to pressure as the air rises in the troposphere?
Air pressure is simply the weight of the air above you. Air pressure falls with height because the higher you go up, the less air there is above you to weigh down on you.
When you get higher what happens to air pressure?
Air pressure decreases as you go higher.
As an airplane flies higher in the air what happens to the atmosphere outside the plane?
It gets thinner (the pressure drops) and colder.
What happens to air pressure as you move higher above the earth surface?
The air is thinner the higher you go.
What happens to air pressure as you move higher above earths surface?
The air is thinner the higher you go.
Which would have more air pressure on a mountain or in a valley and why?
A mountain because the higher in air you go the more higher air pressure gets. this is not part of the anwser but, G-force is pressure on arollar coaster when u get higher.
Why do recipes change at higher altitudes?
The air pressure gets lower!
If the air pressure gets higher does it mean that there are more molecules pressing down?
quite right. Air pressure is the result of millions of air molecules impinging on the surface per unit area. The higher the air pressure, the higher the number of strikes from air molecules.
What effect doe altitude and air pressure have on each other?
As you go higher, air (atmospheric) pressure gets reduced.
What happens when a dog gets yelled at?
The air vibrates in pressure waves.
What happens to the air temperature as you move higher into the atmosphere?
it gets coolder
What happens when air pressure is cooled?
When the air is cooled it mostly rains
Why does it get colder the higher you go to the mountain?
It gets colder the higher you climb a mountain because of the lower air pressure.
