Answer:
- As altitude rises, air pressure drops. In other words, if the indicated altitude is high, the air pressure is low.
Explanation:
Pressure with Height: 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. At higher elevations, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface than a similar surface at lower levels.
So, as we go up at higher altitude the pressure decreases.
