What is higher miles or kilometers?
Kilometers r higher to me!:)
A cool region underneath cloud cover will have a region with no cloud cover and a higher what?
a higher pressure thana higher density thana higher pressure thanwill have a higher densitya higher air pressure thana higher density than
Blood pressure is higher in veins than arteries?
No, pressure is higher in the arteries.
When you get higher what happens to air pressure?
Air pressure decreases as you go higher.
What factors affects pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
What would occur when he atmosheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure?
When the atmospheric pressure is higher than intrapulmonary pressure pressure, inspiration will not take place.
What is the principle involved in pressure cooker?
At higher pressures, water boils at a higher temperature. A pressure cooker lets you cook at a higher pressure than regular saucepans so you can have a higher boiling temperature
What are factors that affect gas pressure?
There are two factors that affect gas pressure. These factors are temperature and volume. Higher volume means lower pressure. Higher temperature means higher pressure.
What does the vapor pressure of water at 10 C compare with its vapor pressure at 50 C?
At higher temperature the vapor pressure is higher.
What causes has pressure?
The answer depends on what kind of pressure. If you mean the pressure exerted by gasses on the walls of a container (a balloon, for example), pressure is created by the motion of the molecules of gas. Temperature and density of the molecules are factors. Higher density results in higher pressure. Higher temperature creates more molecular motion, thereby creating higher pressure.
How does pressure affect boiling point?
The boiling point is that temperature when the SATURATEDvapor pressure of a liquidbecomes equal tothe surrounding pressure.Thus the higher the sorrounding pressure, the higher the boiling point.
What factor besides the temperature affects the boiling point of water?
Air pressure also affects the boiling point of water. The higher the air pressure, the higher the boiling point.
