Well pressure within a sealed container is defined by the pressure surrounding the container. If the pressure outside is equal to the pressure within the sealed container, there is no positive or negative pressure gradient. If the pressure outside is less than the pressure within the sealed container, there is positive pressure increase within the container.

Because air in the higher atmosphere is of lesser pressure than at ground level, bringing a seal container filled at ground level to the higher atmosphere will cause the sealed container to increase in internal pressure. However, you asked what will happened within a pressurized airplane, pressurization within the airplane is meant to prevent the pressure within the cabin from dropping to that of the surrounding environmental pressure. Therefore a sealed container within a pressurized airplane should not change significantly, assuming the container was filled at ground pressure, the pressure which cabins are pressurized to.

Yes, air pressure could affect the way a jet flies. It also depends on the size of the jet and the power of the air pressure because smaller size jet could have a big reaction of a normal air pressure, but a bigger size jet might not have a big reaction like the smaller one. The reason why the bigger jet might not have a big reaction as the smaller jet is because the bigger jet have a bigger weight and a bigger jet is like blowing a football with your mouth, and a smaller jet is like blowing a balloon with your mouth.

How would mass change if you place a burning candle in a sealed container?

When a fire is lit in a sealed container it is very likely to cause an explosion because of the build up of internal pressure from smoke.


What are three possible causes for increase in gas pressure?

Compressing it, heating it (in a sealed container) or adding more gas to a quantity already in a sealed container (which is like compressing it).


Can liquid nitrogen evaporate from a sealed container?

Do not enclose liquid nitrogen in a sealed container, as this may result in bursting or an explosion due to pressure buildup caused by the evaporation.


Would the boiling point of water be higher or lower on a mountain peakhow would the boiling point be affected in a pressurized system?

The higher the pressure being exerted on the water, the lower the boiling point becomes. Yes the boiling point is affected in a pressurized system. If you put water in a sealed container and kept raising the pressure it will eventually reach it's boiling point without the need of adding heat.


Is air pressure in a cave greater than air pressure at sea level?

It all depends on the altitude of the cave. Note, a sealed cave can be pressurized, but as soon as it is opened the pressure will equalize.


Why would a sealed container of air be crushed after being frozen?

A sealed container of air would be crushed after being frozen because as the pressure decreases, the temperature also decreases. The air molecules inside of the sealed container shrink when it is frozen. The colder the air, the lower the temperature.


If the pressure in a sealed container is reduced can boiling point of a fluid be also reduced?

Yes. You can, for example, boil water at room temperature if you apply a vacuum pump to the container. However, if it was ONLY a sealed container (reduce the pressure and then take the vacuum pump away), the vapor increases the pressure and the whole thing comes to equilibrium and stops boiling.


Why does air pressure in a cars tire increase after a long drive?

As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature. When you increase the temperature of a gas in a sealed container the pressure goes up.As you drive, the friction of the road and the flexing of the tire increases the tires temperature.
