What is the partial pressure of oxygen on Mt Everest if the atmospheric pressure on Mt Everest is one-third the atmospheric pressure at sea level?
The partial pressure of oxygen on Mt Everest would be approximately one-third of the partial pressure of oxygen at sea level, assuming a constant composition of air. This decrease is due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure at higher elevations. This lower partial pressure of oxygen can lead to decreased oxygen availability for breathing at high altitudes.
Why is the atmospheric pressure at the top of mt Everest 5 lbin squared much less than the atmospheric pressure here on earth 14.7 lbin squared?
The atmospheric pressure is caused by the weight of the air on top of us. At the top of mount Everest, there is less air above the exhausted climber (because a lot of the air is below). Less air, less weight, less pressure.
What is the tallest mountain in Sequoia National Park?
The tallest mountain in Sequoia National Park is Mount Whitney, which is also the tallest mountain in the contiguous United States with an elevation of 14,505 feet.
Why did Mt Ruapehu erupt in 1995-6?
When tectonic plates shift and move toward each other and then rub together, pressure from molten rocks builds up and the magma rises to the top. The volcano erupts on the surface, and lava and gases are spewed out.
If cold air is heavier than warm air then why is it colder in the mountains?
You have forgotten one vital fact, cold air is heavier than hot air------At the same atmospheric pressure!!. That means that the cold air on Mt Everest is lighter than than the warm air 29000 ft below in the Ganges Delta.
What is atmospheric pressure on top of Mt Everest on a day when water boils there at a temperature of 70.0C?
31200 N/m2
Why would a camper near the top of mt Everest find that water boils at less than 100 degrees Celsius?
Water boils at lower temperatures at higher altitudes due to the decrease in atmospheric pressure. At the top of Mt. Everest, the atmospheric pressure is significantly lower than at sea level, causing water to boil at temperatures below 100 degrees Celsius.
What is atmosphoric pressure in mm hg in Colorado?
Depends on where you are in Colorado. There is no one atmospheric pressure, and it changes daily. It will be much less at the top of Mt. Evans (14,200 ft) than in Denver (5,280 ft)

Why is the boiling point lower on the top of Mt. Everest?
The boiling point is lower on the top of Mt. Everest because the atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes is lower than at sea level. As a result, water molecules can escape into the air more easily, requiring less heat energy to reach the boiling point.
When did Mt. Whitney last erupt?
Mt. Whitney has never erupted. It is not a volcano.
Which is taller Mount McKinley or Mount Whitney?
Mt McKinley is 20,320 feet and Mt Whitney is 14,495 feet in altitude.
How Tall Mount Whitney?
Mt. Whitney is 14,491 ft. high
What place on the earth's surface has the lowest air pressure?
lol
In healthy lungs what pressure is always lower than atmospheric pressure?
Gee, that's a good question. Hmm... i'd say the atmospheric pressure would be lower because when you travel to higher altitudes like, Mt Everest, the pressure in your lungs decrease causing them to deflate the lungs.......Its Intrapleural pressure
What location is Mt Whitney in?
It is in the DESERT.
