Imagine this scenario: a pyramid of cheerleaders. The ones at the bottom feel more pressure, because there's more people on top. The ones on top feel less pressure because there's less stuff on top of them. Now think about your question, if you're @ the bottom, there's more stuff on top of you.
What else can I help you with?
The atmospheric pressure near the earths surface does what?
It decreases as you move away from the earth surface
Does Mars have extreme pressure?
No, Mars has a much lower atmospheric pressure compared to Earth. The average surface pressure on Mars is about 0.6% of Earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level, making it too thin to support human life without a pressure suit.
When the layer of the air that sorrounds the earth presses down this is called what?
This is called atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the weight of the air above a given point on Earth's surface.
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.
Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the atmosphere against the of the earth?
Yes, atmospheric pressure is the force per unit area exerted by the weight of air above a given point on Earth's surface. It decreases with increasing altitude due to the decrease in air density.
About What fraction of atmospheric pressure greatest at the surface of earth?
At the surface of the Earth, about 99% of the atmosphere's total mass is located below 32 km. This is where most of the atmospheric pressure is concentrated. Therefore, the greatest fraction of atmospheric pressure is present at the Earth's surface.
Where on earth is atmospheric pressure greatest?
The atmospheric pressure is greatest at sea level, which is at the Earth's surface. As altitude increases, atmospheric pressure decreases.
How does atmospheric pressure change as you move away from the surface of earth?
Atmospheric pressure decreases as you move away from the surface of the Earth. This is because the weight of the air above you decreases with higher altitudes, resulting in lower atmospheric pressure.
What is ten bar?
Bar is a unit used to measure pressure, one bar is the normal atmospheric pressure of the on the surface of the earth, and ten bar is when the pressure is ten times the normal atmospheric pressure on the surface of the earth.
The atmospheric pressure near the earths surface does what?
It decreases as you move away from the earth surface
What planets air pressure is the same as it is 30 km above earths surface?
The planet with an atmospheric pressure similar to that 30 km above Earth's surface is Venus. At an altitude of about 50 km above Venus, the atmospheric pressure is comparable to Earth's surface pressure.
Does Mars have extreme pressure?
No, Mars has a much lower atmospheric pressure compared to Earth. The average surface pressure on Mars is about 0.6% of Earth's atmospheric pressure at sea level, making it too thin to support human life without a pressure suit.
What is the difference between gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure?
Gauge pressure is the pressure measured relative to atmospheric pressure, while atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere on a surface. Gauge pressure accounts for atmospheric pressure, while atmospheric pressure is the total pressure exerted by the atmosphere.
Dose air in the atmosphere exert pressure on earths surface?
Yes. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure caused by air when it exerts pressure on the surface of earth.
How many more times is the atmospheric pressure in Jupiter's core greater than the atmospheric pressure at the earth's surface?
Earth's atmospheric pressure is measured as 1 bar. Jupiter's atmospheric pressure is 100 million bars. Therefore, it is 100 million times greater
How does atmospheric pressure affect you. How does atmospheric pressure change as you increase your distance above earth's surface?
I dont do science i am a more pe type
When the layer of the air that sorrounds the earth presses down this is called what?
This is called atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the weight of the air above a given point on Earth's surface.
