Density of air - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The density of air , ρ (Greek: rho) (air density), is the mass per unit volume of Earth's atmosphere, and is a useful value in aeronautics and other sciences. Air density decreases with increasing a...

The density of dry air at sea level is 1.2929 kg/m3 or about 1/800th the density of water. But as altitude increases, the density drops dramatically. This is because the density of air is proportional to the pressure and inversely proportional to temperature.

Understanding air density and its effects ... In addition to a basic discussion of air density, we will also describe the effects of lower air density – such as caused by going to high altitudes – on humans, how humidity affects air density – you might be surprised – and the affects of air density of...

Air Density and Density Altitude Calculations ... So, the basic idea of calculating density altitude is to calculate the actual density of the air, and then find the altitude at which that same air density occurs in the Standard Atmosphere.

Density - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The density of a material is defined as its mass per unit volume. The symbol of density is ρ (the Greek letter rho). Mathematically: \rho = \frac{m}{V} \, where: \rho (rho) is the density...

The density of air under standard conditions is only 1.239 milligrams per cubic centimeter under standard conditions. Measuring the density is done by finding the mass of an evacuated glass sphere, letting the air back into the sphere, and finding the new mass.

But for gases, the density can vary over a wide range because the molecules are free to move. Air at the surface of the earth has a very different density than air 50 kilometers above the earth. An interactive simulator allows you to study how air density varies with altitude.
