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.

How do water rockets work?
They work on compressed air. Water is the propellant but the
compressed air forces it out under pressure.
Asked in Power Tools
How does air tools work?
They have a turbine that acts as motor, and when air pressure
turns it they rotate. Air nailers use air pressure on a diaphragm
to fire a small shaft that does the action.

What is the barometer used for and how does it work?
A barometer is used to measure air pressure. There are various
types of barometers. Barometers respond to change in air
pressure.
Asked in Meteorology and Weather
What is altitude and air pressure and how do they work together?
Air pressure is a measure of the mass of air above you. As the
atmosphere is of fixed thickness and is made of compressible
gasses, as you ascend in altitude the mass of air above you will
decrease.
This means as you ascend in altitude, the air pressure will
decrease and vice versa.
Asked in Oceans and Seas
How is earths air pressure different from seas air pressure?
It is different in that the seas don't have air pressure. No
air; no air pressure.

Asked in Meteorology and Weather
Does cold air have low pressure?
Pressure depends more on elevation and if there is bad
weather/sunny. Bad weather cause the pressure to drop. At the same
elevation, cold air is denser/heavier than hot air, how hot air
balloons work.

Definition of Air Pressure - What is air pressure?
Air pressure is the pressure exerted from the atmosphere
Asked in Engineering
How does air pressure affect air movement?
Air pressure affects air movement because air moves from high
pressure to low pressure. The air pressure pushes or will press the
air around.

Asked in Home Electricity
What are DC and ac appliances?
DC appliances work on direct current such as you would get from
a battery. Appliances in cars generally work on 12 v DC.
AC appliances work on alternating current such as the house
power supply, which is 120 v in America and 230 v in Europe.

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.

How does a pressure tank work?
A pressure tank is basically a big steel can that has a
compressor attached to it. The compressor keeps pumping in air to
build up pressure. This compressed air is then used in tools, to
air up tires, and inflate rubber balls.
Asked in Airplanes and Aircraft, Birds
How does lift work for a plane or a bird?
Basically the lift of the plane works on the balanceness
of air pressure. When the air pressure is made to build more below
the plane and the air pressure on the upper part becomes less, then
the plane gets a lift.

Asked in Meteorology and Weather, Earth Sciences
Why does air pressure push on objects in all directions?
The natural tendency of air pressure is to equalize itself;
without some kind of barrier or force at work, air pressure simply
balances out, or spreads out. The world would be very strange if
this were not so.
Asked in Chevy Camaro, Heater Cores and Blower Fans, Jeep Grand Cherokee
Why do Fans work but no hot air?
The fan is blowing air faster than it is going in the air, due
to increased in velocity of air pressure will drop.... due to
pressure drop, temperature will be decreased so we feel cold air.
