    Explanation:

    Increase altitude = > decreasing pressure ... as matter of fact, the standard lapse rate is - 1.0 lbs/in² per 1000 feet. That is ...

    at earth's surface = > P = 14.2 psi

    at 1000ft = > P = 13.2 psi

    at 2000ft = > P = 12.2 psi

    at 5000 ft = > P = 9.2 psi and so on.
