Where is the air pressure greater-at sea level or on a mountaintop?
Air pressure is Greater at sea level.Atmospheric pressure is higher at sea level. There is more atmosphere on top of the observer at that point, so the pressure is higher.
Great masses of air molecules pushing down from adove?
It is AIR PRESSURE!!
Where is air pressure greater on the surface of the earth or 100 miles out into space?
Air pressure decreases steadily with increasing altitude. At 100 miles up, there is essentially NO atmosphere.
What is the air pressure at sea level called?
Sea level pressure, sometimes as mean sea level pressure.
How much air pressure is on you if i'm below sea level?
Below sea level atmospheric pressure increases with depth. Air pressure at sea level is about 14.7 psia. Air pressure below sea level would be slightly higher.
Where would atmospheric pressure be greatest at sea level on a mountaintop at the altitude at which planes fly or at the outer edge of the atmosphere?
Sea level. Actually atmospheric pressure is the greatest at the earths core
Is atmospheric pressure higher on a mountaintop or sea level?
sea level
Why does water boils at lower temperature in a mountaintop?
Because in the mountaintop the pressure is lower than in the sea level; I think.
Why is pressure higher at sea level than a mountaintop?
Because it is duhhh

Why is atmospheric pressure higher at sea level than mountaintop?
because they bang each other alot.
Where is air pressure the greatest?
The air pressure is greatest at sea level.
Where is the air pressure the greatest at sea level or on a mountain?
sea level
Normal air pressure is greatest at?
Sea level.
Air pressure is greatest because there are more molecules of air pushing down from above?
Air pressure is greatest at sea level.
Where is the pressure greatest and the least inside a bottle filled with water?
The pressure at the bottom of the bottle is the greatest. It decreases as the level comes up and is the least at the top.
Why is air pressures greatest at ground level?
It is not, air pressure is greatest at sea level. This is because the air pressure is caused by the weight of the air above you and at sea level the depth of the air column above you is at its maximum.
