Physics

Answer:

decrease.

Explanation:

The air pressure is given by

P = h x d x g

where, h is the height of air column above the surface and g be the acceleration due to gravity and d be the density of air.

As we go up, the height of air column decreases, density of air decreases and acceleration due to gravity also decreases, so the value of pressure decreases at altitudes.

andrey2020 [161]
Assuming air as ideal gas and amount of air in no of moles is known then by gas law,

PV= nRT

Pressure is constant

P* (change in volume) = nR* (change in temperature)
