Why does a person feel uneasy while climbing high mountains?
Because there is less oxygen, due to low air pressure.
What happens to air pressure when the temperature drops?
When air pressure drops temperature also drops. Thus on high mountains low air pressure is accompanied by low temperature. This is true for high atmosphere also.
What happens to the air density when climbing mountains?
Air density decreases as you climb mountains because the air molecules become more spread out at higher altitudes. This means there are fewer air molecules in a given volume, leading to lower air density.
How does mountains and water effect air pressure and temperature?
more mountains + more air equals more pressure.... its like sitting on a bag of air
Why does the air get thinner at the peak of climbing a mountain?
At high altitudes on mountains, the air pressure decreases because there is less atmosphere above pressing down. This reduction in air pressure means there are fewer molecules of air per unit volume, resulting in thinner air.
Why do you lose breath easily when climbing a mountain?
the air pressure decreases
What happens to air pressure when the barometer is rising?
The air pressure is rising.
What happens to air pressure when you move from the troposphere to the stratosphere?
air pressure decreases
What happens with air pressure when the air is cold?
The air pressure is high when the air is cold, and it's sinking.
What happens to air pressure as distance from earth's surface increases?
the air pressure increases
What happens to air pressure when density decreases?
density decreases as air pressure increases
What happens to air at the center of a cyclone or center of low pressure?
What is the center of low air pressure
