in order to make things clear, I would like to explain how is the pressure measured and what does it mean...
pressure is the force (weight) exerted by an object on a specific area. and by this we can define the atmospheric pressure as the weight of the column of air ,that extends from earth to the exosphere; the upper limit of our atmosphere, divided by the area.
now by increasing the length of that column (and consequently increase the weight) we increase the pressure,and the same thing can be applied when decreasing the length.
What else can I help you with?
What happens to the pressure of the earth as depth below the surface increases?
the pressure decreases the pressure increases
Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?
The atmospheric pressure is greatest at sea level, which is at the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
What happens to the temperature and pressure as you get closer to the center of the earth?
As you get closer to the center of the Earth, both temperature and pressure increase. The temperature increases due to the Earth's core being composed of hot, molten metal, while pressure increases due to the weight of the overlying material pressing down on the layers below.
What happens to air pressure as the distance from Earths surface increases?
As the distance from Earth's surface increases, the air pressure decreases. This is because there is less air above pushing down on the air below. The decrease in air pressure is why it becomes harder to breathe at higher altitudes.
How does pressure change as you get closer to the center of the earth?
Pressure increases as you move closer to the center of the Earth due to the increasing weight of the rock and other materials pressing down from above. At the Earth's core, pressure is incredibly high, reaching levels that can cause even the most durable materials to compress and deform.
What happens to the atmosheric pressure when the height above the surface of earth increases?
Pressure decreases
How does pressure change as the distance from earth increases?
As distance from Earth increases, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This is because there are fewer air molecules present at higher altitudes, leading to lower pressure.
Does pressure increase or decrease as you travel to the center of the earth?
It increases. The closer you get to the Earth's core - the higher the pressure (and temperature).
What happens to the pressure of the earth as depth below the surface increases?
the pressure decreases the pressure increases
Explain what hppens to air pressure as you move away from the earths surface?
Pressure increases as you get closer to earth.
Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?
The atmospheric pressure is greatest at sea level, which is at the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
What happens to the pressure as an object moves closer to the core?
Pressure increases as an object moves closer to the core due to the increasing weight of the overlying material. The weight of the material creates a higher pressure at greater depths within the Earth.
What happens to the temperature and pressure as you get closer to the center of the earth?
As you get closer to the center of the Earth, both temperature and pressure increase. The temperature increases due to the Earth's core being composed of hot, molten metal, while pressure increases due to the weight of the overlying material pressing down on the layers below.
If altitude decreases what does density do?
As altitude decreases, air density increases. This is because air molecules are more compressed closer to the Earth's surface, resulting in higher density at lower altitudes.
What is the Difference between an active earth pressure and passive earth pressure?
When the wall moves away from the backfill, the earth pressure on the wall decreases. This minimum pressure is called active earth pressure. On the other hand if the wall moves towards the backfill, the earth pressure increases. This maximum pressure is called passive earth pressure.
What happens as you get closer to the center of the earth?
As we get closer to the center of the earth, the gravity of earth increases and the heat too increases...thats what i think.
What happens to air pressure as the distance from Earths surface increases?
As the distance from Earth's surface increases, the air pressure decreases. This is because there is less air above pushing down on the air below. The decrease in air pressure is why it becomes harder to breathe at higher altitudes.
