Soil pressure increases with depth due to the overburden or self-weight of the soil and also due to loads imposed upon the soil. For example, the pressure variation below the depth of soil is linear and the relation is given by pressure = unit wt * depth. As depth increases, there will be a linear increase in the soil pressure.

Why does the temperature of soil increase quickly?
because soil absorbs the sun
Compare how pressure and temperature change with depth inside earth?
when you go up in the air the more pressure you feel it is the same when you go deeper under water
Does the air increase or decrease towards the surface with a high pressure?
Air density and pressure increase nearer the surface
What is the name of the bacteria which increase the fertility of soil?
actinomycetes
Our reliance o soils increase or decrease ahead in coming time?

Which solution will have more gas dissovled in it a solution under high pressure or one under low pressure?
The solubility of gases in liquids increase when pressure increase.
How do you increase filtration rate under constant pressure?
increase the area of filtration
Does temperature of a gas increase or decrease under pressure?
If a gas is pressurised then the temperature will increase.
Will the evaporation rate of gasoline increase if placed under pressure?
No, the rate of evaporation will decrease as pressure is increased.
Does the soil porosity increase as the depth increases?
Bulk density generally increases with soil depth due to increasing pressure from the soil column above. Porosity is inversely related to bulk density, thus porosity should decrease as soil depth increases.
Is pressure cooker an example of the application of Charles' law?
yes pressure cooker is an example for both charles' law and boyle's. under constant volume temperature is directly proportional to pressure, where the pressure is directly proportional to temperature. so when the stove heats the cooker it increase the in the pressure which in turn increase the internal temprature and cooks the food faster....
When you exert force on a fluid in a closed container does the pressure increase decrease or remain constant?
The pressure increases.
How can you increase the fertility of soil?
Mix fertilizer into the soil.
Why does tire pressure increase in the summer and decreases in the winter?
Pressure increase when temperature increase.
What can increase tire pressure?
Increased temperature will increase tire pressure a bit. Lower ambient pressure will increase tire pressure a bit as well.
If temperature of a gas increases and put under decreased pressure what happens?
It will start to smell. The volume will increase.
Why do beverage bottlers close containers of carbonated beverages under pressure?
to increase the amount of gases in the beverage
