Where is the atmospheric pressure the greatest?
Near the earth's surface.
What happens when the atmospheric pressure is greatest near the Earths surface?
Air pressure is always greater nearer the earth surface than at altitude due to the mass of air above.
What regulates the Earth's average temperature?
atmospheric pressure
Where on earth would you expect atmospheric pressure to be highest?
at the surface
Is the weight of the air pressing down on the Earth?
Air pressure
Where is the atmospheric pressure the greatest?
Near the earth's surface.
Why is atmospheric pressure greatest at the surface of earth?
Atmospheric pressure is greatest at the surface of the Earth because there is more air above pushing down. As you move higher in the atmosphere, there is less air above, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure. Gravity also plays a role in compressing the air molecules closer to the Earth's surface, increasing the pressure.
Does Mars have extreme pressure?
The atmospheric pressure of Mars is 6 millibars as opposed to the 1,013 millibars of atmospheric pressure on Earth. Thus, its atmospheric pressure in relationship to Earth is extremely low.
What is Neptune's atmospheric pressure compared to earth's atmospheric pressure?
42% higher
How many more times is the atmospheric pressure in Jupiter's core greater than the atmospheric pressure at the earth's surface?
Earth's atmospheric pressure is measured as 1 bar. Jupiter's atmospheric pressure is 100 million bars. Therefore, it is 100 million times greater
Where does the greatest atmospheric pressure occur?
It occurs in the Troposphere because it is closer to earth so the air results in being more thicker and compressed
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
How does atmosphere pressure with height in the atmosphere?
Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.
What happens when the atmospheric pressure is greatest near the Earths surface?
Air pressure is always greater nearer the earth surface than at altitude due to the mass of air above.
Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the atmosphere against the of the earth?
surface.
What is ten bar?
Bar is a unit used to measure pressure, one bar is the normal atmospheric pressure of the on the surface of the earth, and ten bar is when the pressure is ten times the normal atmospheric pressure on the surface of the earth.
What regulates the Earth's average temperature?
atmospheric pressure
