A) pressure = Force/ Area. Pressure = 1.5/0.5 = 3. B) Option A. The air pressure decreases. Since atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing altitude, as the plane soars higher and higher the pressure on the outside decreases since there are fewer air molecules -- the total weight of the air above a unit area becomes increasingly small. As we move higher up earth's surface, there are fewer air molecules than at lower levels; this explains why pressure decreases with increasing altitude.
