Atmospheric pressure varies due to elevation (altitude) and because of the motion of air masses over the surface.
For altitude differences, the pressure is the result of the surrounding air. Higher pressure is experienced at lower altitudes just as higher pressure is found in greater depths within a body of water. A simple explanation is that the "column of air" above a surface "pushing down" is much shorter if you move higher into the "sea of air." This lower weight is expressed as lower pressure, which represents fewer molecules within a given volume of air.
The higher the altitude (eg. mountains) = The lesser the atmospheric pressure
The lower the altitude (eg. sea level) = The higher the atmospheric pressure

how are boiling milk and earth crust the same?
Earths crust can break under pressure and milk can break its foundation from pressure, both are different types of pressure, but still
What happens as you go deeper in Earth's crust?
As you go deeper into Earth's crust, the temperature and pressure increase. The rocks become hotter and more compact, leading to changes in their physical and chemical properties. You may also encounter different types of rocks and mineral deposits at various depths.
Why might historians need to describe different places on earth?
Historians might need to describe different places on earth to add context to a historical situation. For example, the activities of the Mayan society might be interpreted differently without an accurate idea of the geographical aspects of the region.
Does barometric pressure go up or down as you go lower into the earth?
As you go deeper into the Earth, barometric pressure increases. This is primarily due to the weight of the overlying rock and soil, which exerts pressure on the layers below. The deeper you go, the more material is above you, contributing to higher pressure levels. However, this increase in pressure is different from atmospheric barometric pressure, which decreases with altitude in the atmosphere.
What air moves horizontally?
When air is moving horizontally, that is known as wind.
Why climates different at different places on earth?
Different places experience different climates on Earth because of the Earth's tilting at a certain angle. As Time goes by, and the earth keeps rotating, the angle of its appearance towards the sun keeps changing, which explains why different places experience different climates
Pound to kg pressure unit difference?
On Earth, 1 kg weighs 2.205 lbs. In other places, the number is different.
Do all places on earth have day at the same times?
No, due to the rotation of the Earth, different places experience day and night at different times. This is why we have different time zones around the world.
How does earth geological features affect the ability of organisms to live in different places?
Earth geological features affect the ability of organisms to live in different places because the temperatures change. Since animals and other organisms have different requirements to live, they have to live in different places.
How do the movement of the earth affect life on earth?
Not getting new thing from different places
Why does the sun apper in different places?
because the earth spins
What causes variation in time at different places on earth?
Since the Earth tilts on an axis, different places both in the northern and southern hemisphere will be facing the sun, so the different places of the earth have the sun in different places, therefore, the different places of the earth have different time zones.
Why are constellations seen at different places and time?
Constellations appear to be in different places at different times due to the Earth's rotation on its axis. As the Earth rotates, the position of the observer relative to the stars changes, causing different constellations to become visible. This is why different constellations can be seen in the night sky at different times and in different locations on Earth.
What is the only item found on earth in three different phases of matter at standard pressure?
Water is the only item found on earth in three different phases of matter at standard pressure.
Why do some states have different times zones?
The Earth rotates, making it different times in different places.
What factors influence the amount of energy that different places on earth receives from the sun?
The main factor that influences the amount of energy that different places on Earth receive from the sun is the places location. The closer it is to the equator the more sun energy it will receive.
From where did Zeus descend?
In Greek mythology, Zeus lives on Mount Olympus with the other Olympian deities. In various myths, he descends to different places on Earth and begets children by mortal women.
