How does atmospheric pressure change as you move away from the surface of earth?
Air pressure decreases as you move away from Earth's surface.
What is causing the plates of granite rock to flake off?
A change in pressure once exposed at the surface
What is the barometer used for and how does it work?
A barometer is an instrument used to measure atmospheric pressure. It can measure the pressure exerted by the atmosphere by using water, air, or mercury. Pressure tendency can forecast short term changes in the weather. Numerous measurements of air pressure are used within surface weather analysis to help find surface troughs, high pressure systems, and frontal boundaries.
Why do metamorphic rocks often form deep under the surface of the earth?
Metamorphic rocks are often found deep under the earth's surface because metamorphic rocks form from heat and pressure. Therefore, they form while they are under the earth's surface.
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.
How will the pressure of an object change if its area is doubled?
It won't. The pressure within a hollow object may change if the surface area changes, hence the volume. The total pressure acting on the exterior of a solid object may change if the total surface area changes.

How does the tempretaure change?
Changes in pressure systems that make it colder or warmer
How does pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center if the earth?
The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure
How does pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center if earth?
The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure
How does the air pressure change before a tornado?
Tornadoes are associated with low pressure systems. Therefore, pressure will drop in the time leading up to a tornado.
Does the mass of an object change with location or altitude above the Earth's surface?
No it does not. Its weight, however, does.
How does air pressure change altitude in the atmosphere?
air grows thinner so it gives less pressure on the earth's surface
How does vapor pressure of water change when a salt is added?
it decreases the surface tension of the water.
Heat and pressure deep beneath Earth’s surface can change any rock into?
Magma
