What would a barometer reading be if you there was no barometric pressure?

A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, so if there was no barometric pressure, the barometer reading would likely show a value of zero or indicate an error. Atmospheric pressure is necessary for the functioning of a barometer.

What is the difference between pressure and atmospheric pressure?

Atmospheric pressure is a unit of measument, and measure the pressure of the air. Much like the deeper you go in the ocean the higher the pressure is. You are actually on the bottom of an ocean of air, the higher up the less atmospheric pressure and eventually there is non when you reach outer space.


Does atmospheric pressure have any effect on the oxygen level in the scuba tank?

No, only when it is released into the atmosphere at the ambient pressure.


You are collecting gas over H2O in an experiment does the atmospheric pressure have anything to do with the pressure inside the gas collection container?

Yes, the pressure inside the collection container will be exactly equal to the atmospheric pressure if the water level in the collection container is level with the rest of the water. If the atmospheric pressure is different, then the pressure inside the collection container will be different, and that will affect how you calculate the amount of gas collected. If the pressure is different due to the difference in altitude of the location, or even different weather, the results will be different. Simply measuring the atmospheric pressure with a barometer will allow you correct for any such differences.


Can mean effective pressure less than atmospheric pressure?

no Because any body subject is affected by the atmospheric pressure in the case of its occurrence under the pressure of what it means that the pressure for increased atmospheric pressure.
