Asked by Tabby

should atmospheric pressure increase or decrease as one goes from the beach to the mountains? why?

Answers

Answered by DrBob222
The pressure at the beach is higher because the column of air pushing down on the beach is longer(higher). The column at the top of a mountain is not as long (not as high); therefore, it weighs less.
