5.28 x 10000000000000000000 kg is the weight of air for the entire atmosphere.
What else can I help you with?
Is air pressure the greatest at sea level?
Yes the air there as the weight of the entire atmosphere on it.
Why does air pressure becomes lower as water molecules are added to the air?
Air pressure is the weight of the air at a specific location. On the surface of the earth, we have the entire weight of the atmosphere pressing on us in the form of air molecules like O2, N2, and CO2. As we go higher and higher into the atmosphere, there are fewer molecules and so there is less weight pressing against us.
The weight of air is called?
The weight of air is called atmospheric pressure. It is the force exerted by the weight of the air above a given point in the atmosphere.
Why does the atmosphere's air press on the earth?
Air weight.
What is air pruessure?
The weight of air above us in the atmosphere
What is the weight of air on earth is called?
The weight of air on Earth is called atmospheric pressure. It is the force exerted by the weight of air molecules in the Earth's atmosphere on a surface.
Is air pressure the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on earth?
Yes, air pressure is the weight of the atmosphere pressing down on Earth's surface due to the force of gravity pulling the air molecules towards the ground.
As rising in atmosphere air pressure increases?
No. Air pressure decreases as you move up in the atmosphere. This is because air has mass and weight like everything else, and as you rise up in the atmosphere there is less air above you.
What refers to the weight of air?
Air pressure refers to the weight of the air above a certain point in the atmosphere. It is measured in units such as millibars or inches of mercury.
Does the density of the earth's atmosphere increase with altitude?
The atmosphere becomes less dense with altitude. Atmosphere, thin though it is, has weight, and it is the weight of the air above which compresses the air below it, to greater density.
Why does the atmosphere exert pressure?
The atmosphere exerts pressure because of the weight of the air above pushing down on the air below. This pressure is caused by the force of gravity acting on the mass of the air molecules in the atmosphere.
What does the weight of the air create?
The weight of air is generally referred to as air pressure (about 14.7 psi). This is the weight oa coulmn of air extending from the surface to the upper limits of the atmosphere for each square inch of surface.
