Air Density Flashcards
1
Q
What is the formula for density?
A
p = m/v
2
Q
What is the ideal gas law?
A
PM = rhoR*T
3
Q
How does density vary with increasing pressure?
A
Increasing pressure = increasing density
4
Q
How does density vary with increasing temperature?
A
Increasing temperature = decreasing density
5
Q
How does increased water vapour affect air density?
A
Increased water vapour decreases air density
6
Q
How does density vary with altitude?
A
Decreases with increase in altitude
7
Q
How does atmospheric weight affect air density?
A
Directly proportional
