Appliances that work on air pressure: 1. Syringe Explanation: When the piston of the syringe is pulled, the volume in it increases, while the number of air molecules is still the same, resulting the low air pressure in the syringe and automatically, the air pressure outside is higher if compared to that of the air pressure in the syringe. the higher air pressure outside will force the liquid that you wish to suck to enter the syringe. 2. Siphon (for cleaning water in the aquarium) 3. Spraying pump 4. Straw All of the appliances work according to the same principle.

What generally happens to atmospheric pressure on a windy day?

On a windy day atmospheric pressure decreases because the higher
the wind velocity, the lower the air pressure, or atmospheric
pressure. This is how chimneys work, the air that moves above the
chimney causes low air pressure because of the high wind velocity
compared the velocity of the air inside a house. The air inside the
house goes towards the low air pressure and takes the smoke with
it.
