What does the buoyant force exerted on you by the atmosphere if you were to climb a high mountain?

The buoyant force exerted on a person by the atmosphere decreases as they climb a high mountain due to the lower atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes. This decrease in pressure results in less force being exerted against the person's body.


What is the surface pressure on your mother?

It would be the barometric pressure of the atmosphere which depends on the altitude of the person in question.


What nutrients makes a person's blood pressure higher?

How many pounds of air are you carrying on your head if you are at sea level?

14.7 pounds per square inch of head surface.


How much does earths atmosphere increase a person weight?

Earth's atmosphere actually decreases you weight, due to the minute effects of buoyancy with the air. Even though there are tons and tons of atmosphere on us, the preasure is balanced by the internal pressure within our bodies, just like with fish in deep water that have tons and tons of water pressing in on them. The average different that the air has on us is about 40-55 grams (or .09 - .12 lbs).


What is the csf pressure of a person with pseudo tumor cerebri and that of a person without it?

Anything higher than 15 is considered PTC.


Would a person on mars choke because of the atmosphere?

No. Just die. Its pressure is less than the top of our highest mountain.


Who would have a higher pulse pressure a resting athlete or a resting person who never exercise?

A person who has never exercised before would have a higher heart rate and blood pressure than an ahlete at rest. A athlete could have a heart rate below 60 BPM becauses they have a stronger and healthy heartEdit to add: Uhh ... While all of this may be true, the question is asking about a higher pulse pressure. Pulse pressure refers to the difference between systolic and diastolic pressure. Due primarily to decreases in the diastolic pressure observed in athletes, a resting athlete will have the higher *PULSE PRESSURE*.


Does the fluid pressure increase or decrease as a person climbs a mountain?

It increases because the higher you go the lower the pressure is in the air and your blood (body fluids) pressure has to go higher to survive. But you can't go super high like to space because you would die.


Why would humans swell up and die if they traveled to Mars?

The air pressure on the planet Mars is extremely low. A person exposed to such low air pressure would therefore be injured by the internal pressure of his or her own body, which is adapted to the Earth's atmosphere. Even aside from that, the atmosphere of Mars does not contain oxygen, so any person trying to breathe it would die from lack of oxygen. However, a person could live on Mars, just as a person could live on the moon, as long as that person remained inside a space suit or other air-tight container, which would provide the right kind of air pressure and oxygen to breathe.


What might abnormal increase in venous pressure indicate?

An abnormal increase in venous pressure may indicate a problem with one of the heart valves. It could also mean that the person is on medication that causes higher blood pressure.


What measurements are taken when determining a person's blood pressure?

Systolic and Diastolic pressure measurements are taken. Systolic is the higher pressure measurement, when the heart ventricles are contracted, and Diastolic is the lower pressure when the ventricles are filling. So if somebody's blood pressure is 120/80, then 120 is the systolic pressure and 80 is the diastolic pressure
