Our bodies are used to a certain amount of pressure. So, when you go in a plane, pressure changes and makes your ears pop. Chew gum or wear earplugs.

your ears hurt when you are in an aircraft because of the change in air pressure when you are in the air


Why does air pressure make your ears hurt on an airplane?

When you climb higher the air pressure changes and the pressure inside of you hasn't changed so the pressure makes your ears hurt. After a while the pressure balances out and your ears wont hurt. That is why cabins are pressurized to help reduced pain from pressure difference.

Why does air exert pressure?

Air exerts pressure in the same way that water exerts pressure on a diver. Air has weight, and because we are at the bottom of a blanket of air that surrounds the earth, the weight of that air is pressing down on us (creating pressure). If you go under water, you'll feel the additional pressure created by the weight of the water above you.


Why the pressure vareis from moutanins to land?

The pressure decreases as altitude increases due to the decrease in air density. Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air above us, so at higher altitudes where there is less air above, there is less pressure. In contrast, at lower altitudes like in valleys or near the sea, there is more air above, leading to higher pressure.


Why does the air in the atmosphere press on us?

The air in the atmosphere presses on us due to the force of gravity pulling the air molecules towards the Earth's surface. This creates atmospheric pressure, which is the weight of the air above us pressing down on our bodies.


Why doesnt air pressure crush us?

The air pressure inside our bodies balances the external air pressure, preventing us from being crushed. Our bodies are also designed to adapt to changes in pressure, allowing us to withstand variations in atmospheric pressure without harm. Additionally, the human body is mostly made up of water and solids, which are not easily compressible.
