What happens to pressure as the air rises in the troposphere?
Air pressure is simply the weight of the air above you. Air pressure falls with height because the higher you go up, the less air there is above you to weigh down on you.
Can warm air pressure weigh more than cold air pressure?
No, warm air and cold air exert different pressures due to their different densities, but the weight of a volume of air is determined by its mass. Therefore, a mass of warm air does not weigh more than a mass of cold air, assuming the volumes are the same.
Does the air has a weight?
You can blow up a balloon and then weigh the balloon and minus it from the original weight of the balloonAnswer:Weighing air is problem because of the buoyant forces at work. If you have flattened paper bag and weigh it then open it up (effectively filling it with air), and weigh it again you find the weight is the same. In the case of a balloon, a filled balloon will weigh more than an empty balloon as it is filled with compressed air due to the tension of the balloon skin. You have no idea of the volume of room pressure air is in it.To determine this you could inflate the balloon with known volume of air using bicycle pump. Simple math would identify the volume transferred with each stroke. By knowing the weight before filling, the weight after filling, and the volume transferred it would be possible to calclate the weight per meter (or cubic foot) of room pressure air.
What uses air pressure to work?
air
What is air moves from a point at which air pressure?
high pressure to low pressure
How much does a basketball weigh in kilos?
1.5 Kilos is the heaviest, but typically the ball would weigh around 800 grams

Do bicycle pumps weigh less when they don't contain air?
Well in theory there won't be a difference in weight when at atmospheric pressure because air doesn't weigh anything on a scale open to the atmosphere but when the pump is in a vacuum and it contains air it will weigh more.
Does light weigh more than air?
no it just is the light ficture that makes it seem. no because you can feel the air and its pressure and for the light it actually some times makes the air heavier because of the heat and makes air heavier in pressure
How much does 100 cubic feet of air weigh?
According to the related link, PHYSLINK.COM, "1 cubic foot of air at standard temperature and pressure assuming average composition weighs approximately 0.0807 lbs". The weight of air is highly dependant on the air temperature and barometric pressure.

How is earths air pressure different from seas air pressure?
It is different in that the seas don't have air pressure. No air; no air pressure.
How much does air pressure weigh at sea level?
Air pressure at sea level typically weighs around 14.7 pounds per square inch (psi), or around 101.3 kilopascals (kPa). This is the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level.
How does air pressure affect air movement?
Air pressure affects air movement because air moves from high pressure to low pressure. The air pressure pushes or will press the air around.
What is the force put on a given area by the given weight of the air above it?
That is the air pressure or amospheric pressure. It is the pressure at any given point in the Earth's atmosphere. In most circumstances atmospheric pressure is closely approximated by the hydrostatic pressure caused by the weight of air above the measurement point. Low pressure areas have less atmospheric mass above their location, whereas high pressure areas have more atmospheric mass above their location. Similarly, as elevation increases there is less overlying atmospheric mass, so that pressure decreases with increasing elevation. A column of air 1 square inch in cross section, measured from sea level to the top of the atmosphere, would weigh approximately 14.7 lbf. A 1 m² (11 sq ft) column of air would weigh about 100 kilonewtons, equivalent to a mass of 10.2 tonnes at the surface.
Is compressed air more buoyant than atmospheric air?
Since weight is the measure of an object's gravitational pull, the compressed air does not weigh more. The difference is in the density of the air. A tank filled with compressed air will weigh more than a tank that is filled with air at normal atmospheric pressure.
