The scientific law that relates air pressure and volume is Boyle's law. It states that at a constant temperature, the pressure exerted by a gas is inversely proportional to its volume. In other words, as the volume of a gas decreases, its pressure increases, and vice versa.

How volume of air effects air pressure?
meteorology and water
What does an increase in air pressure mean?
Increase in air pressure means the pressure on piece of area increases by the action of sun
What happens to volume when air temperature increases?
If pressure remains constant, then volume is directly proportional to temperature. Hot air is quite loud.
How does temperature effect a volume of air?
Temperature is not directly tied to volume, its related to pressure. Increasing the temperature will increase the pressure--only if volume is held constant. That is were volume and temperature are related, through pressure. However, if you increase the volume it does not change the temperature.
Why is atmospheric pressure and water pressure different?
The big reason is because air is air, and water is water. The second reason is because air is compressible, while water cannot be compressed. What that means is that if you compress air to twice the pressure, it will be one-half the volume. If you compress water to be twice the pressure, the volume won't change.
A change in can bring about a change in air pressure?
if the dna sequence of a gene was tacttaccgagctagact then what kind of mutation has occured This has nothing to do with the question of air pressure. Either a change of temperature or a change of volume can affect air pressure, according to Boyle's Law of Gases. Increasing temperature=increased air pressure Decreased volume=increased air pressure The reverse is also true. Decreased temperature=decreased air pressure Increased volume=decreased air pressure
How volume of air effects air pressure?

If the air inside a balloon is heated the volume will?
The volume would increase as the pressure of the expanding air increases.
Why does air pressure decreases when volume increases?
Air pressure is the weight of all the air above you. The higher you go, the more air is below you.
What scientific unit of measure is air pressure?
degrese
What happends to air when its heated?
In accordance with Boyle's Law, if the volume of the air is restricted, the pressure will increase. If there is no volume restriction, the air will expand.
What are 3 factors affect air pressure?
The factors are: -The volume that the air takes up (the greater the volume the less the pressure) -The amount/number of molecules of air (the more gas the higher the pressure) -The temperature (the higher the temperature the higher the pressure) and that's it lol
Why volume of water exerts greater pressure than volume of air?
DENSER MORE PRESSURE PRESSURE PRESSURE LOOK AT SCIENCE TEXT BOOK DONT CHEAT ON WIKI Water has more density than air.
What does an increase in air pressure mean?
Increase in air pressure means the pressure on piece of area increases by the action of sun
What happens to volume when air temperature increases?
If pressure remains constant, then volume is directly proportional to temperature. Hot air is quite loud.
What scientific reason is there for measuring air pressure?
loop is funny
How does density change as air pressure increases?
If you have air in a tight cylinder piston system, when you apply pressure you will see the volume of the air reduced. The amount of mass of air is the same, but now it occupies less volume, the molecules are closer together, its density has increased.
