<em><u>Air is less dense on a mountain top than at sea level.  </u></em>

<em><u>More force pushes on the air at the bottom of an air column.  </u></em>

<em><u>As you descend a mountain, air molecules are closer together. </u></em>

Answer: Option A, D & E

<u>Explanation:</u>

Air pressure means the effect of gravitational force acting on the surface area. Density is the measurement on the arrangement of the molecules. Altitude is the height above sea level. Air pressure decrease with altitude.

The altitude always determines the air pressure and density. As we get above the sea level the air is less dense lacking Oxygen. At higher altitude the air molecules spread more. Due to earth’s gravity the air is pushed towards the bottom of an air column.

Which object would have a larger gravitational force acting upon it
fiasKO [112]

Answer

Hi,

An object with the largest size will have a large gravitational force acting on it. Explanation

The gravitation force increases with increase in size of an object. An object that has twice as much mass will exert two times as much gravitational pull on other objects. An object with greater mass attracts the earth more strongly that the other one with smaller mass. On the earth’s space, the more massive objects will exert stronger gravitational forces.

Best wishes!
