Does air pressure increase as you climb from land at sea level to the top of a mountain?
the air pressure decreases as you climb a mountain. it would be harder to breathe
When air and atmosphere is warmed what does air pressure do?
decreases i think
How does atmospheric pressure change as you move up away from sea level?
as you move up from sea level, the atmospheric pressure decreases. At higher elevations, theres less air above you so therefor less air pressure. When the air pressure outside your body decreases, the air pressure inside also decreases (slowly).
Is it true that atmospheric pressure decreases with increased altitude?
False. The air pressure decreases and gets thinner as you go up. That is part of the reason why you can get nose bleeds as you go higher.
If oxygen is removed from a sample of air as iron rusts what happens to the total pressure of the air?
it decreases
What happens to air pressure when density decreases?
density decreases as air pressure increases
When air is heated air pressure decreases because the molecules?
when air is heated ,air pressure decreases because the molecules are
Why does the air pressure change the altitude in the atmosphere?
As the amount of air above us decreases...the air pressure decreases.
What effect on air pressure with altitude explain briefly?
As altitude increases, air pressure decreases. As altitude decreases, air pressure increases.
How does altitude affect density and pressure?
Air pressure decreases as altitude increases. As air pressure decreases, so does density.
As altitude increases air pressure .?
it decreases
What does air pressure do as altitudes?
Air pressure increases as altitude decreases.
How air density related to air pressure?
As air pressure pressure decreases with altitude, so does the densite of air.
How does altitude affect density and air pressure?
Altitude has a large affect on the air pressure and air density. Air density reduces with altitude and air pressure reduces with altitude as well.
What does the air pressure do as you move up?
the air pressure decreases as you go up.
What does air pressure do when altitude increases?
Air pressure decreases with increase of height.
What happens to the air pressure when you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
air pressure decreases
