Document Summary
Flying in a jet at a high altitude with other people. What will happen if a 30 -cm hole suddenly occurs mid-air in the fuselage of an airliner. Why does a mountain climber at the top of mt everest need to use an oxygen tank. A mountain climber at the top of mt everest is above how much of the atmosphere"s molecules. Atmosphere is more crowded towards the earths surface. Because of the earths gravity it squeezes and capsulate the air molecules close to the surface. The more air that is present, there is more atmospheric pressure ank to. The more air that is present, there is more atmospheric pressure. 10339. 3 kg x 9. 8 m s -2 = -2 101325kg m s -2. When you"re closer to sea level the atmospheric pressure is higher, as you gain altitude the pressure decreases. With rising altitude the greatest drop occurs near the surface. Tells us how much matter is in a space.
