Does air pressure increase or decrease as you go higher?
decrease
What will cause a decrease in a gas pressure in a closed container?
A loss of gas, or a decrease in temperature.
What will cause a a decrease in gas pressure in a closed container?
Either decrease the amount of gas, or decrease the temperature.
When carbon dioxide in the atmosphere increases, the amount of energy absorbed by Earth’s surface should?
Decrease
Do the boiling point of water directly proportional to pressure?
Yes, if you decrease the pressure, boiling point will also decrease and vica versa.
Does temperature affect air pressure?
In the atmosphere increasing the temperature the pressure decrease.
Does atmospheric pressure decrease the deeper you go in the atmosphere?
it increases.
Why does pressure decrease as you move away from the surface?
As you rise up through the atmosphere, there is less of the atmosphere above you to press down on you. Thus less pressure.
Does air pressure increase or decrease as you move up into the atmosphere?
Air pressure decreases as you go up.
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 is effect of decreasing pressure on solid carbon dioxide?
normal melting and boiling points are those when the pressure is 1 atmosphere, Solid CO2 gets converted to gaseous state (sublimation) on decrease of pressure to 1 atmosphere
Why does water boiling point decrease with increases in elavation?
The pressure of the atmosphere is less at higher elevations. The atmospheric pressure is what keeps water from turning into a gas.
When you inhale does pressure decrease inside or increase?
The act of inhaling is to create low pressure in the lungs, causing the air in the atmosphere to rush in as it is moving from a higher pressure (outside in the atmosphere) to the lower pressure (created in the lungs). However the fact that air does move into the lungs means that there is no net change in pressure.
When altitude increases does air density?
The density of the atmosphere decreases with altitude.
Do skis increase or decrease pressure?
they decrease pressure
As you get higher in the atmosphere does the temperature increase or decrease?
decrease
How would relaxing the smooth muscles in arteries affect blood pressure?
Blood pressure would decrease
