Answer:

b. more rapidly in the vertical direction

Explanation:

Atmospheric Pressure decreases with increasing 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.

Pressure decreases with increasing altitude because at higher altitudes both the height of overlying air column and its density decreases. Hence the answer.

What happens when you compress a gas?

8090 [49]

The density increases.
When gases are compressed, their volume decreases, and the resulting pressure increases. The temperature will change if either P or V are held constant. Since the volume decreases, then density, or m/V, increases.
P×V ~ T
