When the altitude increases, the air pressure decreases (or "GOES DOWN") and vice versa.
This is due to the fact that air is affected by gravity, therefore there is more of it at a lower altitude than at a higher altitude.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to air pressure as you go to altitude?
It drecrease
What happens to air with increased altitude?
it goes throuh space
What happens to air pressure's rate of change as altitude increases?
As altitude increases, the rate of change of air pressure decreases. This is because the air becomes less dense at higher altitudes, leading to a more gradual decrease in pressure with increasing altitude.
How does altitude affect density and air pressure?
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
How is it that the altitude decrease and the density of the air does what?
Altitude decreases, pressure increase, temperature decreases (some, but less effect than pressure), density goes up.
When you get higher what happens to air pressure?
As you increase in altitude, the air pressure decreases. This is because the higher you go, the fewer air molecules are present above you, leading to lower pressure. In general, air pressure decreases by about 1 atmosphere for every 10,000 feet increase in altitude.
How does altitude in the atmosphere affect air pressure?
The greater the altitude, the lower the air pressure.
What happens to the air pressure when climbing mountains?
as the altitude increases density of air decreases. This makes it harder to breath.
What happens to the hot air balloon when it reaches an altitude of 10000 meters?
the air pressure outside of the balloon decreases.
What does air pressure do when altitude increases?
Air pressure decreases with increase of height.
What happens to the air pressure as you increase in altitude?
Six years later, but okay: As the altitude goes on increasing, the air pressure falls. This is mainly because as you go up the atmosphere, the density of the atmosphere decreases. So, as you go up, the pressure is lesser. Closer to the surface of the earth, this difference is treated negligible for calculation (physicists go wheeeee) but in most real life applications, it is rather noticable. Hope this helps!
How does air pressure change as altitude change?
Increased altitude means decreased air pressure.
