What are one-dimensional vectors?
line that only goes in one direction and the opposite direction
What is a straight path that goes on for ever in two directions?
One direction.
Is a straight path that goes on forever in two direction?
It is a straight line.
What is the line that goes in one direction without stopping and has a end point?
a ray
What is a ray used in geometry?
A ray has only one point. It goes on and on in one direction only.
Is atmospheric pressure goes on a downward direction only?
No, atmospheric pressure can fluctuate both upwards and downwards due to various factors such as weather patterns, altitude changes, and temperature variations. However, in general, atmospheric pressure tends to decrease with increasing altitude.
Atmospheric pressure goes on a downward direction only?
No
Why does the pressure drop as you travel upward from earth's surface?
As you travel upward from the Earth's surface, the column of air above you decreases in height, leading to less air above exerting pressure downwards. This results in a decrease in atmospheric pressure with increasing altitude.
Sound is a longitudinal wave What does the word 'longitudinal' mean?
Longitudinal means that the oscillation of particles in the wave occurs parallel to the direction of energy transfer. In the case of sound waves, the particles of the medium vibrate back and forth in the same direction that the sound wave is propagating.
If you drop an object from airplane where it goes?
The object will appear to move backwards relative to the airplane, but it will actually move in the direction of travel as well as fall downwards.
When you breathe in the diaphragm goes up or down?
The diaphragm goes downwards.
What role does atmospheric pressure play when someone is drinking a liquid through a straw?
when you drink through a straw you remove some of the air in the straw. because there is less air the pressure of the straw is reduced. but the atmospheric pressure on the surface of the liquid remains the same. henceforth how it helps you drink
How do atmospheric pressure zones and ocean currents affect earth's energy balance?
Warm temp create area of low atmospheric pressure on the Earth's surface while area of high pressure r generated when temp r relatively cold. Once established, the thermal gradient then develops a flow of air that goes from high 2 low pressure
What generally happens to atmospheric pressure on a windy day?
On a windy day atmospheric pressure decreases because the higher the wind velocity, the lower the air pressure, or atmospheric pressure. This is how chimneys work, the air that moves above the chimney causes low air pressure because of the high wind velocity compared the velocity of the air inside a house. The air inside the house goes towards the low air pressure and takes the smoke with it.
How would gas exchange be affected at the top of a tall mountain where air pressure is lower and there is less oxygen then lower elevations?
At high altitudes, atmospheric pressure is lower. Therefore, the partial pressure (partial oxygen) is lower. As partial pressure of oxygen goes down, the body's desire for oxygen goes up.

Why do a weather balloon keep increasing in volume as it rises through the stratosphere?
As the weather balloon rises through the stratosphere, the atmospheric pressure decreases. This lower pressure causes the gas inside the balloon to expand, leading to an increase in volume. The gas molecules have more space to spread out due to the reduced external pressure.
