Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?
sea or oceans
Does rain usually occur in high atmospheric pressure or low atmospheric pressure?
rain occurs in low atmospheric pressure.
Can mean effective pressure less than atmospheric pressure?
no Because any body subject is affected by the atmospheric pressure in the case of its occurrence under the pressure of what it means that the pressure for increased atmospheric pressure.
What happens when the atmospheric pressure is greatest near the Earths surface?
Air pressure is always greater nearer the earth surface than at altitude due to the mass of air above.
The force exerted by the weight of a column of air on a surface is called?
Air Pressure The force exerted by the air above is called?
Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?
sea or oceans
Where would atmospheric pressure be greatest at sea level on a mountaintop at the altitude at which planes fly or at the outer edge of the atmosphere?
Sea level. Actually atmospheric pressure is the greatest at the earths core
Why is atmospheric pressure greatest at the surface of earth?
Atmospheric pressure is greatest at the surface of the Earth because there is more air above pushing down. As you move higher in the atmosphere, there is less air above, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure. Gravity also plays a role in compressing the air molecules closer to the Earth's surface, increasing the pressure.
What is a sentence with the word atmospheric pressure?
Atmospheric pressure
Does rain usually occur in high atmospheric pressure or low atmospheric pressure?
rain occurs in low atmospheric pressure.
How does atmosphere pressure with height in the atmosphere?
Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.
How does the human body resist the atmospheric pressure?
because our body pressure is equal to the atmospheric pressure.
Can mean effective pressure less than atmospheric pressure?
no Because any body subject is affected by the atmospheric pressure in the case of its occurrence under the pressure of what it means that the pressure for increased 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.
What is Neptune's atmospheric pressure compared to earth's atmospheric pressure?
42% higher
How does the atmospheric pressure at altitudes sea level compare with atmospheric pressure at sea level?
the atmospheric pressure below sea level is highter (novanet)
Is gauge pressure is the sum of true pressure and atmospheric pressure?
No, it is the DIFFERENCE between the true and atmospheric pressures.
