Do air pressure and temperature change in the same way with altitude?
yep
How do winds winds move?
Air density is subject to change by temperature and altitude. When air experiences a large change in either temperature or altitude, it expands or contracts, creating motion in the air. When high pressure and low pressure systems meet, winds can grow exponentially, as warm air rises over cooler air.
Name three things that effect air pressure?
temperature, water vapor, and elevation.
How does the temperature of the air change as you increase in altitude in the troposphere?
The temp rises
How does high altitude air density change when near the equator where there are large temperature and humidity swings?
density changes as the altitude changes.
Do air pressure and temperature change in the same way with altitude?
yep
How does air pressure change as altitude change?
Increased altitude means decreased air pressure.

As altitude increases how does air pressure change?
Increased altitude means decreased air pressure.
What happens to air pressure's rate of change as altitude increases?
The rate of change of air pressure as a function of increasing altitude decreases with increasing altitude.
What are some elements that change air pressure?
temperature (heat), volume, water vapor, and altitude (how high or low it is) all affect air pressure
What are three factors that can change the speed and pressure of air flow?
1) Weather and precipitations 2) Altitude 3) Air Temperature
How does air pressure change in the atmosphere as the altitude change?
By farting
What the factors that affect air pressure?
temperature and altitude =D
Does air pressure change with altitude?
The higher up you are the lesser the air pressure in the atmosphere.
Can air pressure falls drastically at high altitude?
Air pressure falls of as one gains altitude. At high altitude the air pressure is very low but it does not "falls drastically", which implies a sudden change.
How does air pressure change with altitude in the atmosphere?
air grows thinner so it gives less pressure on the earth's surface
