Explain the causes of atmospheric pressure and why it changes with altitude?​

Physics
1 answer:
Verdich [7]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

As altitude increases, the amount of gas molecules in the air decreases—the air becomes less dense than air nearer to sea level. This is what meteorologists and mountaineers mean by "thin air." Thin air exerts less pressure than air at a lower altitude

In a parallel circuit the current A stays in one path B splits and goes through two components C makes one circle
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

B splits and goes through two components

Explanation:

- A series circuit is a circuit in which the components are all connected along the same branch: as a result, the current flowing through the components is the same, while the sum of the potential differences across each component is equal to the emf of the battery

- A parallel circuit is a circuit consisting of separate branches, so that each branch has a potential difference equal to the emf of the battery. As a result, in such a circuit the current in the circuit splits and goes through the different branches/components.

So, the correct answer is

B splits and goes through two components
