What else can I help you with?
As you get closer to the Earth the air pressure decreases or increases?
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.
How The scale used to define sound intensities is called the scale?
The scale used to define sound intensities is called the decibel scale. It measures the relative intensity of sounds based on the logarithm of the ratio of the sound pressure level to a reference level.
Does air expand or contract as it rises?
It depends on how you define gas, and on how large a scale you are looking at. If air is any gas then of course it is thousands of times more abundant on a universal scale, and almost certainly on a global scale too. (after all not only is the atmosphere deeper than the ocean but as it is further away from the centre of the earth each meter's depth has a greater effect) If you only count air as oxygen then I'm not sure on a global scale but I'm pretty sure it will still be more abundant on a universal scale. Hope this helps
How do you define weathering?
the climate of the earths atmosphere bepending on matter and airclimate is the atmospheric conditions over a large area and a long perios of timefor example humid is type of climate^_^
How do you define the word weather?
Weather refers to the atmospheric conditions in a specific location at a particular time, including temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind speed, and cloud cover. It is the day-to-day variations in these elements that make up the weather patterns we experience. Weather is influenced by factors such as air pressure, temperature gradients, and the Earth's rotation.
Define thin atmosphere relating to mercury?
It is so thin that the atmospheric pressure is one half of a millionth of the earth's atmospheric pressure.
What is the relation between pressure in atmosphere and pressure?
Atmospheric pressure is the surrounding pressure around us. We live in the atmosphere and treat the atmospheric pressure as the base pressure. A pressure gauge would read 0 at atmospheric pressure. When we define the pressure in scientific way of absolute pressure, we need to add up an atmospheric pressure to the measured pressure.
Are there any layers in Mars' atmosphere?
Human exploration and study of Mars has not been detailed enough to result in the assignment of atmospheric layers. Since the atmospheric pressure a the surface of mars in only about 0.6% or Earth's mean sea-lever pressure, it is unlikely that a need to assign or define level will arise.
What isobar can measure?
Isobars can measure atmospheric pressure at a specific point in time. They are lines on a weather map that connect points of equal atmospheric pressure. By analyzing the spacing and distribution of isobars, meteorologists can predict weather patterns and systems.
Define compressed natural gas?
Compressed natural gas is natural gas under pressure which remains clear, odorless, and non-corrosive. This is when natural gas is compressed to less than 1% of its volume at standard atmospheric pressure.
How can I define boiling point scientifically?
Boiling point is defined as the temperature at which the vapour pressure of a liquid is equal to the atmospheric pressure. In other words, it is the minimum temperature at which a matter which is in the liquid state gets converted to a matter in the gaseous or vapour state.
Why will water boil at 96 Celsius?
it may be because of decrease in pressure.it can also be due to many other factors we define the boiling point as the temperature in which the molecules of the liquid leaves the surface and its pressure equals the atmospheric pressure so if we reduce pressure we can reduce boiling point
Why is the word surface not used in the statistics for the gas giant's?
Because the gas giants don't have a solid surface, so it's hard to define a proper "surface" where the "atmosphere" ends and the real "planet" begins. Instead the "surface" of a gas giant is generally defined as the point where the pressure of the gas is equal to the atmospheric pressure at Earth's surface.

How do you define Charles's law?
At fixed pressure, the temperature is directly proportional to the volume

Define polar easterlies?
The dry, cold winds originating from the Polar Highs, from high pressure zones.
