Answer:
here's your answer dear
Earth's atmosphere is incredibly thin in comparison with the radius of the planet. ... This basic force causes more than half of the air molecules in the Earth's atmosphere to reside below 5.5 kilometers. As a result, air pressure does not decrease in a linear fashion.
hope it helps you from my side

Answer:
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. For example, there are fewer molecules above the 50 km surface that are found above the 12 km surface, which is why the pressure is less at 50 km.
