Answer» ong>Answer: Option 3 is correct - Decreases.. Explanation: Pressure decreases with increase in altitude. The pressure at any level in the atmosphere MAY be interpreted as the total WEIGHT of the air above a unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations, there are fewer air MOLECULES above a given surface than a SIMILAR surface at LOWER levels. Pressure at a point is caused due to the huge mass of air over it. So when we take a point as we go higher, there is lesser air above it,thus air pressure decreases with increase in elevation. This answer may be help you |
