At which of the following locations would you measure the lowest air pressure? select one: a. top of mt. everest (29,028 ft) b. coors field in denver (5280 ft) c. top of c-section in assembly hall (805 ft) d. lake shore drive in chicago, il (597 ft) e. times square in new york city (15 ft)

a) Top of Mt. Everest (29,028ft)

Explanation:

Since pessure decreases with increase in altitude, the Top of Mt. Everest would have the lowest air pressure owing to its high altitude of 29,028ft which is higher than the rest options.

The pressure at any level in the atmosphere is measured as the total weight of the air above a particular unit area at any elevation. At higher elevations or altitude, there are fewer air molecules above a given surface compared to a similar surface at lower level.
