Air is thinner than water. Air is a gas and has a lower density compared to water, which is a liquid. At sea level, the density of air is about 1000 times lower than that of water.

Why is the boiling point of water lower a the mountains than it is at sea?

Because the air is thicker at sea and thinner the higher you go


Why is the air thinner at higher altitudes?

The air is thinner at higher altitudes because there is less atmospheric pressure pushing down on it. This causes the air molecules to be more spread out, making the air less dense.


As elevation increases this becomes thinner?

The atmosphere. As you go higher in elevation, the atmosphere becomes thinner because the air pressure decreases, leading to lower air density.


Why would a baseball fly farther in Denver than in New York?

Since Denver is at a higher elevation than Milwaukee, the air is thinner. Thinner air has fewer molecules, so there is less friction as the ball flies through the air. Less friction means that the force will move the ball a longer distance.

Why is the air thinner at night?

During the night, as the ground cools down, the air near the surface also cools and becomes more dense. This cooler, dense air stays close to the ground, causing it to sink and displace the lighter, less dense air above. This leads to a decrease in air pressure and makes the air feel "thinner" compared to during the day.


Does water balloons hold more air than latex balloons?

Water balloons are typically made of thinner material than latex balloons, so they can hold less air in comparison. Also, water balloons are designed to hold water, not air, so they may burst if overinflated with air. Latex balloons are designed specifically for holding air and can typically hold more air than water balloons.


What is the atmosphere like in higher elevations?
