Air pressure is the amount of force exerted on an object by the atmosphere. It is greatest at sea level.
It is greatest in the exosphere, due to the fact that air pressure is greater as the altitude rises; the exosphere is the highest level within the atmosphere.
Air pressure is greatest in the areas that are small and enclosed. This is because there is no way to escape.

As you rise further in the atmosphere air pressure does what?
The higher you go in the atmosphere the lower the air pressure becomes...
Air pressure is greatest because there are more molecules of air pushing down from above?
Air pressure is greatest at sea level.
Which atmospheric layer has the greatest air pressure?
It's the troposphere because :The troposphere contains 75 per cent of the atmosphere's gas. It also holds huge amounts of dust and water vapor, and is often dense with clouds and mist. Air pressure is greatest in the troposphere, because gravity pulls the atmosphere towards the Earth, squeezing most of its weight into this lowest layer.
Define atmospheric pressure?
Air pressure is the pressure exerted from the atmosphere
When air and atmosphere is warmed what does air pressure do?
decreases i think
Is air pressure the greatest at sea level?
Yes the air there as the weight of the entire atmosphere on it.
Where would air pressure be greatest on a mountain or a beach?
It would be greatest where the atmosphere above you was thickest. Given this information you can work it out.
How does atmosphere pressure with height in the atmosphere?
Generally, atmospheric pressure is greatest at ground level, because you are at the bottom of the 25 mile thick atmosphere of earth. Greatest water pressure in a swimming pool is at the bottom, too. As you go up into the atmosphere, the pressure tends to decrease.
Where is pressure the greatest in the atmosphere?
The troposphere. Pressure decreases as elevation increases.
Where would the air pressure be the greatest around a mountain?
Air pressure decrease with altitude thus the air pressure is the greatest at the mountain base.
Does Mars have Air pressure?
Yes, it has an atmosphere so it has air pressure.
As you rise further in the atmosphere air pressure does what?
The higher you go in the atmosphere the lower the air pressure becomes...
Where is air pressure the greatest?
The air pressure is greatest at sea level.
How does air pressure change as you move up in the atmosphere?
the air pressure increases
How does air pressure change as you move up the atmosphere?
the air pressure increases
Air pressure is greatest because there are more molecules of air pushing down from above?
Air pressure is greatest at sea level.
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.
