What is the highest mountain from top to bottom?
mauna kea from top to bottom NOT mount Everest
Is it cooler at the top of a mountain than at the bottom?
i dont know
How the upper layer of the atmosphere differ from bottom layer?
The upper layer is different from the bottom layer because the bottom layer has more gualities to a living thing than the upper layer.
What is the most dense layer of the atmosphere?
The most dense layer of the atmosphere is the troposphere is the most dense layer because it is at the bottom of the atmosphere. The troposphere is where all our weather happens. It also has the highest air pressure. But more specifically, the earths atmosphere is most dense at the surface.
Why is it colder on the top of a mountain than the bottom?
As height increases temperture decreases. So the higher you are the colder it is.
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.
Is air pressure the greatest at the top of a mountain?
no, at bottom
Why is the air pressure lower at the top of a mountain than at the bottom of the mountain?
As you increase in altitude above the planet, there are fewer molecules. One way to think of this is that at the top of the mountain, there are fewer molecules "above you pushing down on you."because the is less air at the top of the mountain than at the bottom of the mountain
Why is air pressure lower at the top of mountain than at the bottom of a mountain?
In one word - gravity ! Gravity hold the atmosphere close to the surface of the Earth. The higher you are off the ground - the lower the gravitational effects.
Where is fluid pressure the greatest?
Fluid pressure is the greatest at the deepest point. If the fluid is in different shaped vessels, the pressure is the greatest at the bottom of the vessel no matter what the shape.
How does the air pressure change between the bottom of the mountain and its summit?
It is pressed by the bottom of the earths crust and pressured up to the top of the mountain and the mountain begins to break. It takes about 500 years to break.
Water pressure is the greatest against submerged object sides of a submerged object same top?
Water pressure is greatest against the bottom of a submerged object?
What should a person expect to happen to the air pressure as they move from the base of a mountain to the top of the mountain?
As you move from the bottom to the top of the mountain, the air pressure decreases.
What is the air pressure at the top of the mountain compared to the bottom of the mountain?
The air at the top of the mountain is going to be much less dense than the air at the bottom of the mountain because it is affected less by gravity.
How is air pressure different from the top of the mountain vs the bottom of a mountain?
well a moutian if it is tall enough can reach the sky and air pressure their is 0
Where would you expect the air pressure to be greatest in a valley?
At the bottom of the valley!
Where is the air pressure greater at the bottom at the top of the mountain?
on the bottom of the mountainbeacause you are more below air level
