standard atmospheric pressure at sea level is 14.73 psi Absolute pressure is a gauge plus atmospheric pressure. The gauge being something that you are detecting.. i.e hot water tank.
when vapour pressure>/ = atmospheric pressure then called boiling. sepration of water in hydrogen and oxygen is called decomposition.
In inspiration, intrapulmonary pressure drops 3mm/Hg below atmospheric pressure and air flows into the lungs.
Gage pressure is the difference between atmospheric pressure and absolute pressure. If you fill your tire to 35 psi as read on a tire gage, this is the gage pressure. The absolute pressure inside the tire is the pressure of the atmosphere (14.7 psi normally at sea level) plus the gage pressure.
Condenser Backpressure is the difference between the Atmospheric Pressure and the Vacuum Reading of the Condenser, that is: Backpressure = Atm. Pressure - Condenser Vacuum Pressure Reading Usually, the condenser vacuum pressure is read by a manometer installed at the condenser. The atmospheric pressure is read using a barometer
No, it is the DIFFERENCE between the true and atmospheric pressures.
The cause is the pressure difference between the gas pressure in the bottle and the atmospheric pressure.

Atmospheric pressure is the surrounding pressure around us. We live in the atmosphere and treat the atmospheric pressure as the base pressure. A pressure gauge would read 0 at atmospheric pressure. When we define the pressure in scientific way of absolute pressure, we need to add up an atmospheric pressure to the measured pressure.
Gauge pressure usually refers to the pressure difference between ambient, atmospheric pressure and the pressure in a vessel or line. A gauge pressure of zero would mean that the vessel or line was at atmospheric pressure. Normally the pressures of interest are ABOVE atmospheric so the gauge pressure is positive. Vacuum gauge pressure measures how far BELOW atmospheric pressure a vessel or line is. As such vacuum gauge pressure may be measured as a negative number - or for convenience it may be reported as a positive number with the caveat that it is "vacuum gauge pressure", meaning that the reported pressure is how far atmospheric pressure is above the pressure in the vessel or line.
The correlation between precipitation rate and level of atmospheric pressure is very apparent. As atmospheric pressure decreases, the amount and intensity of precipitation increases.
A manometer is a device that is used to measure the pressure of a fluid. The U-shaped glass tube is partially filled with a liquid, usually mercury. The difference between the height of the mercury corresponds to the difference between the pressure of the fluid in the container and the atmospheric pressure.

Both units are based on the imperial Pounds per Square Inch (PSI). The suffix A refers to Absolute pressure, while G refers to Gauge pressure. Gauge pressure is defined as the difference between the measured pressure and atmospheric pressure. Most pressure measuring devices (gauges) measure the gauge pressure, as one side of the gauge is exposed to atmospheric pressure.
Gage pressure is the difference between atmospheric pressure and absolute pressure. If you fill your tire to 35 psi as read on a tire gage, this is the gage pressure. The absolute pressure inside the tire is the pressure of the atmosphere (14.7 psi normally at sea level) plus the gage pressure.
A manometer is a pressure gauge, "Manometer" reads extremely low pressures that are very close to atmospheric pressures, "pressure gauges" read much larger pressures.
