Air produces a force on the surface of an object (in this case the earth) because of the movement of the particles that make up air. This force over a defined area is known as pressure.
Yes. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure caused by air when it exerts pressure on the surface of earth.
The atmosphere exerts pressure on various objects on the earth's surface. Air pressure is generally caused by the collision of the gas molecules with one another.
A column of air exerts atmospheric pressure on the air or surface below it. This pressure is caused by the weight of the air above pushing down on the lower air or surface.
The atmosphere exerts pressure on all objects and surfaces within it, including buildings, people, and the Earth's surface. This pressure is a result of the weight of air molecules above pressing down on objects below.
the air pressure increases
Air pressure is caused by the unequal heating of earth's surface.
There is about 2 ton of air on every square foot of the Earth (less at high altitudes)
The force exerted by air on the Earth's surface is called atmospheric pressure. This pressure is caused by the weight of the air above pressing down on the Earth's surface.
Pressure increases as you get closer to earth.
Pressure
Yes, the weight of the air exerts pressure on the Earth's surface, creating atmospheric pressure. This pressure decreases with altitude as the air becomes less dense.
because there is no air in space.
