Why does air come out of a bicycle tire when you open the valve even if the valve is pointing up?
Because the air inside the tire is under pressure. Gas always flows from a region of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure. As the pressure inside the tire is greater than the pressure outside, the air always comes out of the bicycle tyre.
Which is stronger the pressure of the air outside or inside the can?
the pressure difference, depends upon the can, and what it contains, in food cans, the pressure is equil, however in soda pop cans the pressure is higher on the inside
How much pressure can a bicycle air tube hold?
Depends on what kind of tire and tube. Mountain bikes how lower pressure, but a higher volume. Usually about 40 PSI. Road bikes have a higher pressure, but a lower volume. Mine are at 105 PSI when I ride.
Why do we experience pain in our ears as you go up in a high place?
The pain in our ears due to elevation change is caused by unequal pressure inside our bodies and the air pressure outside. As you go higher in elevation air pressure drops, so the pressure inside our bodies is higher that the outside environment. This high pressure inside our bodies causes pain as our bodies seek to regain equal air pressure with that of the environment by releasing air out of our ears; that is also why many people experience popping ears as they undergo dramatic elevation changes.
When you get higher what happens to air pressure?
Air pressure decreases as you go higher.

When the air pressure in the lungs is greater than the air pressure outside the body you?
at higher altitudes the pressure of air is greater in our lungs as compare to the air pressure outside the body
The air pressure inside the can compare to the air pressure outside the can equal lower or higher?
There is no difference of the average local air pressure inside or outside of the headphone.
When the water level is higher inside than outside the flask is the gas pressure in the flask higher or lower or the same as the atmospheric pressure?
The gas pressure in the flask is lower than the atmospheric pressure when the water level is higher inside than outside the flask.
Why must the pressure remain the same on both sides of the ear drum?
If pressure is higher in the inside of the eardrum, the eardrum will pop. If pressure is higher outside the eardrum cave in.
Is the air in a can holding tennis balls higher or lower in the can or outside the can?
The air pressure inside the can is always higher than the air pressure outside the can. The air is compressed into the can along with the tennis balls.

When the water level is higher inside than outside the flask is the gas pressure in the flask higher than lower than or the same as the atmospheric pressure?
Yes
Which have more pressure inside bicycle tire or tractor tire tube?
Depends on the type of bike. A skinny tire road bicycle will have several times higher pressure than a tractor tire, while a wide tire Mountainbike can have anything between the double to 1/3 of the pressure of a tra tire.
Is the air pressure in a flying airplane greater that outside the flying airplane?
In a commercial airliner flying at cruising altitude, the air pressure inside the airplane is considerably higher than the air pressure outside. The air pressure outside is too low for people to breathe comfortably, so the interior is pressurized.
Why do the sides of a flexible container collapse when the air is removed?
A pressure difference is created, low pressure on the inside and higher pressure on the outside (the atmospheric pressure). The atmospheric pressure crushes the plastic container, acting on the outer plastic walls.
