No they do balance each other its the newtons law that every action have reaction.If we throw a ball towards a wall the force which we exerted on the ball is equal to the force which wall exerted on the ball.
Force as we all know from elementary education is just a push or a pull... You may say that seawater above an operating submarine is exerting millions of Newton of Force (Newton is unit for force) to the submarine below it.. Now its not easy to imagine or visualize how dangerous that force is taking into consideration the size of the submarine itself... However instead of talking about the total force acting on the whole submarine, we go a little simpler and talk about something we can visualize.. We then say that in every square inch on the surface of the submarine, there is this amount of force that the above seawater exerts- that's Pressure.. Pressure is just Force, but it is a Force described with respect to the surface area it is being exerted... 10 N is a Force. But 10 N pushing a 1 sq cm wall equals a pressure of 10N/sq cm

The deeper you go under the sea, the greater the pressure of the water pushing down on you. For every 33 feet (10 meters) you go down, the pressure increases by 14.7 psi (1 bar). In the deepest ocean, the pressure is equivalent to the weight of an elephant balanced on a postage stamp, or the equivalent of one person trying to support 50 jumbo jets!
air pressure is the firce exerted by moving air moleculesAir pressure is the air around you. Air pressure can pushing every where so the air from the top only dosent squish you into a pancake. Pressure is defined as force per unit area. The standard unit for pressure is the Pascal, which is a Newton per square meter.
If its in a container, pressure is downward and outward due to gravity and confinement respectively. If its on a flat surface without confinement, the pressure is exerted downwards on the surface and the boundaries are held by a combination of adhesion and cohesion.
The pressure exerted by air in a tyre (or any gas anywhere) is caused by the gas molecules colliding with the wall of the tyre at very high speeds. At a certain pressure for example 50 Pascalls the air is exerting 50 Newtons of force on every square meter of tyre.
2 tons for every square inch
A pressure foot is used to measure air pressure inside a tank. This means that every square foot of the tank, there is a pound of pressure.
The pressure that the car exerts, at every point where the tires touch the road, is(total weight of the car) divided by (total area of contact between the tires and the road).

It is a population density equivalent to 1 person for every 2 square kilometres.
Pascal's law states that "pressure exerted anywhere in a confined incompressible fluid is transmitted equally in all directions throughout the fluid, so that the pressure ratio (initial difference) remains same."
If you evacuate all the air between 2 pieces of glass, the glass is pressed together by atmospheric pressure from the outside. By measuring the force needed to separate the panes of glass, one can extrapolate the pressure exerted on the glass.
There is about 2 ton of air on every square foot of the Earth (less at high altitudes)
200 psi is a measurement of pressure. Pounds per square inch is what it stands for. Picture a square in then picture 200 pounds pushing on that (and every other) square inch. 200 psi is fairly high pressure. As an example, a car tire is ususally 32 psi.
