When the height of the mercury in a barometer is 29.92 inches the barometric pressure is?

The standard sea level pressure of Earth's atmosphere - a pressure of 1 Bar or one "atmosphere".


How does atmosphere pressure with height in the atmosphere?

Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.


At approximately what height in the atmosphere would the atmospheric pressure be at 1.0 millibars?

What is the formula to calculate pressure?

Force over Area= Pressure


Why atmospheric pressure varies with height in a different way from the way liquid pressure varies with depth.?

For the same reason. The liquid above the location considered, or the atmosphere above the position considered, helps contribute to the pressure; if there is more liquid or atmosphere above, there is more pressure.


A tank with a flat bottom is filled with water to a height of 4 meters What is the pressure at any point at the bottom of the tank?

Pressure is given by the formula -pgh , where p= desity of water , g gravity ,and h height . So pressure at the depth 3.5m =1*9.8*3.5 pa =34.3 pa. (Assuming density of water to be 1).


What causes classifying clouds to vary?

the shape and height causes it to vary with temperature,pressure,and the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere


What height in the atmosphere would atomospheric pressure be 1.0 millibars?

320,000 ft above sea leavel


Weather element that always decreases with increasing height?

Pressure always decreases with height. This is because atmospheric pressure is just a measure of how much air is weighing down. So the higher you go in the atmosphere, the less air is above you (more of it is below you) and the lower the pressure will be.


Why balloon bursts at height?

Because of the pressure in the higher atmosphere is much lower than the pressure where it was filled. This causes the pressure inside to expand the balloon up to and past the bursting point. Most likely the tip of the troposphere.


What is the formula is used to calculate the pressure in a liquid?

The formula relating the pressure in a liquid to the depth of the liquid is P = P0 + dgh. P is the pressure, P0 is atmospheric pressure, d is the density of the fluid, g is the acceleration of gravity, and h is height below the surface of the water.
