If this is about weather, then high pressure is usually related to fine and warm weather.
If this is about engineering, then anything goes.
When air is compressed, it gets hot, but eventually it'll cool off and then you'll have high pressure and low temperature.
the air is more compressed
the air rises warms the atmosphere
compressed air
Thinner
the density decreases because their is more air pressure in lower altitudes and as you go up their is less air pressure making it hard to breath
Air molecules are pushed closer together at sea level because the column of air pushing down is higher, and will tend be even higher at locations below sea level.Although there are constant variations in air pressure due to weather, lower altitudes will generally have a higher pressure than higher altitudes.
The air pressure at low altitudes is greatest due to the force of Earth's gravitational pull on the atmospheric gases. The air closest to the center of the Earth is pulled more by gravity and is thus more compact than that in the higher altitudes. This compressed air is more pressurized since the gas molecules are closer together and undergo a myriad of collisions with one another. At higher altitudes, water boils at a lower temperature than at sea level. This is because the air pressure is much lower and can be more easily overcome by the water molecules. Vapor pressure, or the pressure at which water evaporates, is lower and this means that the temperature at which the water becomes water vapor is lower as well. While most of the first answer is correct, the relative distances from the center of Earth vary too little to be consequential. Just as in water, air at lower altitudes is compressed more simply due to the weight of all the air that's on top of it.
No, air pressure decreases with increasing elevation. This is because air pressure is due to the weight of the column of air above where you are. The higher you go, the less air there is above you, so the less the weight of that column of air and the lower the air pressure.
The air molecules have mass. When a lot of molecues are piled up,one on top the other, the pressure increases because of that.So air pressure increases at lower altitudes.
The highest altitudes have the lowest air pressure. Air pressure increases as altitude decreases. Above sea level is lower pressure; below sea level is higher pressure.
The air pressure gets lower!
the density decreases because their is more air pressure in lower altitudes and as you go up their is less air pressure making it hard to breath
There is lower air pressure.
at higher altitudes the pressure of air is greater in our lungs as compare to the air pressure outside the body
air (gas) has mass therefore it is affected by gravity. the "deeper" the air the higher the pressure. just like the oceans....
When I point out the fallacies in the question, it will be answered.-- The pressure at higher altitudes is less than the pressure at lower ones.-- The pressure acts downwardanyway.Just keep in mind that the whole phenomenon of air pressure is the resultof the weight of air, meaning the force of gravity attracting air toward thecenter of the Earth. Notice how all fear, doubt, and confusion have vanishedas if by magic.
it is faster at a higher altitude because there are less air pressure when you're away from the Earth. There are more air pressure as you come to Earth so it becomes slower.
Air pressure affects the boiling point. Lower air pressure is present at higher altitudes.
Air molecules are pushed closer together at sea level because the column of air pushing down is higher, and will tend be even higher at locations below sea level.Although there are constant variations in air pressure due to weather, lower altitudes will generally have a higher pressure than higher altitudes.
The density of air decreases at higher altitudes.
The air pressure is less so it is easier for the cake to rise.
