Based on the given options, it can be said that statements "as the altitude continue to increase, the atmospheric pressure approaches 0 [tex]\rm oz/cm^2[/tex] " and "as the altitude decreases, the atmospheric pressure increases" are correct.
Options 1 and 4 are correct.
Given information:
The graph represents the atmospheric pressure, in ounces per square centimeter, as a function of altitude in kilometers above sea level.
From the graph, the following observations can be made:
- At the sea level, the atmospheric pressure is approximately equal to [tex]36\rm\; oz/cm^2[/tex].
- As the height above the sea level increases, the atmospheric pressure tends to decrease and tends to zero.
- The graph represents an exponential decay in pressure with height above sea level.
- Pressure increases with a decrease in altitude.
Therefore, based on the given options, it can be said that statements "as the altitude continue to increase, the atmospheric pressure approaches 0 [tex]\rm oz/cm^2[/tex] " and "as the altitude decreases, the atmospheric pressure increases" are correct.
Options 1 and 4 are correct.
