As altitude above seal level increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
Pressure in these things is measured by how tall a column of liquid it can support. Now atmospheric pressure can support many feet of oil, for example, and who wants a barmeter that tall? Mercury is very dense so you can get away with less than a metre high. Problem solved.
to get rid of Example : The principal decided to do away with school uniforms after the parents voted against them.What_does_wind_meanWhat_does_wind_meanWind is the flow of air from high pressure area to low pressure areaWind as in the movement in air or wind where you twist something and it either moves or makes a sound.
Decreases.
you cant, theres no gravity. the pen doesnt fall, it floats away
If you turn the knob away from you, it will come closer to the slide. If you turn the knob towards you, it will move away from the slide/moves up.
The pressure will decrease, fall, as your altitude increases. No it would not it would increase above sea level
The farther up away you are from sea level the less air pressure there is.
as you move up from sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases. At higher elevations, theres less air above you so therefor less air pressure. When the air pressure outside your body decreases, the air pressure inside also decreases (slowly).
Air pressure decreases as you move away from Earth's surface.
It decreases as you move away from the earth surface
In general, on a hill. However, there are hills in places like Death Valley that are lower than sea level, so there are exceptions. This answer does not take other meteorological conditions into account. Barometric pressure at sea level in a hurricane can be much lower than on a hill miles away.
The mass of the balloon is independent. Atmospheric pressure will not change this because atoms are not being added or taken away from the balloon itself or its contents. The volume of the balloon will change, however, as it will expand or compress in response to the atmospheric pressure around it. The volume, therefore, is a dependent variable in this situation.
A saxophone is playing a steady note of frequency 210 Hz. The temperature in the room is 25 C. Suppose that, at some instant, the varying pressure at your eardrum is at a maximum. How far away (in meters) is the next pressure maximum? If anyone can help me with this, I would appreciate? The speed of sound at 25 C = 343m/s wavelength = speed of sound / frequency wavelength = 343m/s / 210/s = 1.6m Therefore, the distance of the next pressure maximum is 1.6m away from your ear drum.
Water usually boils at 212F or 100C at sea level. As you go higher up in the atmosphere (higher altitude), the amount of atmosphere pushing down on you decreases, hence the pressure decreases. Water boils when the vapor pressure of the water equals the atmospheric pressure. Vapor pressure increases with increasing temperature, so when there is less atmospheric pressure, a smaller vapor pressure is required to get the water boiling, hence a lower boiling temperature.
it decrease and it is globel warming
It decreases as you move away from Earth. Close to Earth's surface, the air pressure (and density) decrease by a factor of 2, every 5 kilometers or so.
As you ascend higher in the Earth's atmosphere, the atmospheric pressure decreases due to several factors: Decreasing Density: The atmosphere is made up of gases held by the Earth's gravity. As you move higher, the density of the air decreases. Lower density means fewer gas molecules in a given volume, resulting in reduced pressure. Weight of the Air Column: Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the air above a given point. When you're closer to the Earth's surface, there's a thicker column of air above you, exerting greater pressure. As you ascend, the column of air above you decreases, leading to lower pressure. Gravitational Force: Gravity pulls gas molecules towards the Earth's surface. Near the surface, the weight of the air above compresses the air below, increasing pressure. As you move away from Earth's surface, the gravitational force weakens, allowing molecules to spread out more, leading to reduced pressure. Temperature Gradient: The temperature in the atmosphere varies with altitude. Generally, the troposphere (the lowest atmospheric layer) experiences a decrease in temperature with increasing altitude. Cooler air is denser, contributing to higher pressure at lower altitudes. These combined factors result in a decrease in atmospheric pressure with altitude. At sea level, the atmospheric pressure is higher due to the weight of the air column above. As you ascend, the fewer air molecules and reduced weight of the air column lead to lower atmospheric pressure. This decrease continues as you move higher into the atmosphere.
