There are a number of the things that one can do as a precaution for traveling to high altitudes areas. Some of these precautions are to allow a few days to adjust once you have arrived at your destination. It is also wise to see a doctor prior to traveling to make sure you have no pre existing conditions that could interfere with the travel. One should also make sure that they keep themselves hydrated.
There are other factors to consider. Outside temperature. If you are at the artic in below zero weather the water would freeze before if evaporates. Altitude. Higher altitude on a mountain gives a lower boiling point, ant at the same temperature, would evaporate faster. Humidity. High humidity will slow the rate of evaporation. Size of the cup. A measuring cup is 8 ounces. A tea cup is less, recent cup sizes for coffee have increased to ridiculous size.
The amount of oxygen is same. The partial pressure of oxygen is lower at higher altitude. The reason why lungs must work harder is because oxygen is required in the body to supply hemoglobins in the blood. The affinity of hemoglobin to oxygen becomes lower as the partial pressure of oxygen decreases, creating a higher breathing rate in order to acquire more oxygen. Take an example of llama that lives up high in mountains. Their body is well adapted to it, such that their hemoglobin's affinity to oxygen is much higher than that of humans, and does not require extra work in order to acquire more oxygen.
Natural gas can take millions of years to form. It is created from the decomposition of organic matter, such as dead plants and animals, under high pressure and temperature deep beneath the Earth's surface.
It can take over month's for a Tsunami to recover from it's damage.
The time it takes to acclimate to high altitude varies for each person, but it typically takes a few days to a week for the body to adjust to the lower oxygen levels. Symptoms of altitude sickness may occur during this time, but usually improve as the body acclimates.
The food either: a. will not cook correctly b. will take a ridiculous amount of time
It typically takes a few days to a week to acclimate to high altitude. Symptoms of altitude sickness may occur during this time, but usually improve as the body adjusts to the lower oxygen levels.
Electronic equipment can operate just fine in high altitude. You simply need to account for environmental issues, such as heat dissipation. Take, for instance, electronics in a satellite - that is the ultimate high altitude.
The building is at a high altitudeAfter take-off a plane climbs to a safe altitude before leveling off.
About Half an hour.
one second
depends on your altitude
It will take the body a few months to adjust.
Depends on the loading, weather conditions, altitude of the local airfield, etc.
4 years on estamete
Acclimatization to high altitudes typically takes about 1-3 days for individuals to adjust to the lower oxygen levels and reduced air pressure.
