The lowest level of the deepest mine (In South Africa), will have the highest atmospheric pressure.

But because of the forced ventilation and cooling systems needed, the air pressure at the lowest levels of the mine will not represent natural atmospheric pressures. [unless the ventilation systems fail!}

An isobar is a line connecting points of equal atmospheric pressure on a pressure map.


What makes wind happen?

Atmospheric pressure creates winds. Air moves to places with low pressure from places with high pressure. When air moves it creates wind.


Isobars are lines ona map joining places that have the same?

Isobars are lines on a map joining places that have the same atmospheric pressure.


Is an isobar line that connects places that have the same air temperature?

No, an isobar line connects places that have the same atmospheric pressure. Isotherm lines, on the other hand, connect places with the same air temperature.


Why does atmospheric pressure start to decrease around midnight when with the temperature decrease pressure should increase?

The reason for temperature being lower in high altitude regions (as compared to places at sea-level) is due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure as we go up in altitude. So decrease in atmospheric pressure causes the temperature to decrease, which might be a reason for the decreased pressure at night. --- Diurnal temperature fluctuations vary by location, but follow a twice-daily cycle of general rise and fall, corresponding to the "atmospheric tide" induced by the eastward rotation of the planet.


How are density pressure and altitude related?

The higher you go, the lesser the air pressure becomes. This can be logically understood. Atmospheric air pressure is caused by the weight of the air above it. At greater heights, the amount of air above you is less, so there is less weight pressing on the air you are in. This is the reason why the atmospheric pressure is higher at the sea-levels and lower at mountains and places of high altitudes.


Why is the atmospheric pressure at the top of mt Everest 5 lbin squared much less than the atmospheric pressure here on earth 14.7 lbin squared?

The atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the air on top of us. At the top of mount Everest, there is less air above the exhausted climber (because a lot of the air is below). Less air, less weight, less pressure.


What does an isobar on a map tell?

It joins places of similar barometric pressure


How do you know if the air pressure is the same or different in different places?

Atmospheric pressure is measured by weather stations in many areas, using devices called barometers to monitor the changing pressure. Air pressure varies within weather systems and by altitude (elevation).


On a weather map an isobar connects places with the same?

On a weather map, an isobar connects places with the same atmospheric pressure. This helps meteorologists analyze pressure patterns and predict weather conditions, such as areas of high and low pressure. Isobars are often used to identify the location of weather systems like highs, lows, and fronts.


Is the air in lungs negative pressure?

There are a number of places in the body where the pressures are lower than atmospheric, or negative. For example, 1- When we breathe in (inspire) the pressure in the lungs must be lower than atmospheric pressure. The lung pressure during inspiration is a few centimeters of water negative.


Isobars are lines on a map joining places that have the same?

Isobars are lines on a map that connect points of equal atmospheric pressure. They help meteorologists analyze and track pressure systems and predict weather patterns.
