Meditation Tips for Beginners. 1  Guided meditation MP3s or CDs as meditation tools. For beginners, audio guided meditations provide step-by-step instructions that help to introduce meditation in an easy and non-intimidating way. 2  Aim to have the length of your exhalations as long, if not longer, than your inhalations.
While air can be compressed more easily than water, freely flowing air acts much like waterâat least at relatively low speeds. So when you squeeze a stream of air, two things happen. The air speeds up, and as it speeds up, its pressureâthe force of the air pressing against the side of the objectâgoes down. When the air slows back down, its pressure goes back up. Why does the air speed up? Because of conservation of mass, which states that mass is neither created nor destroyed, no matter what physical changes may take place.
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 than are found above the 12 km surface, which is why the pressure is less at 50 km. What this implies is that atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing height. Since most of the atmosphere's molecules are held close to the earth's surface by the force of gravity, air pressure decreases rapidly at first, then more slowly at higher levels.
