A gas consists of particles, which are either atoms or molecules, which all move randomly, and independently of each other. Every time a particle bounces off the wall of a container, it exerts some degree of pressure. The total of all the particles bouncing off the walls creates the pressure that we observe.
In a closed container, the gas pressure means the gas atom exerts on the wall of the container. If someone add volume of the gas to the container, it gives more chance for it to collide to the wall. on the other hand, if you heat the container(also the gas inside), it gives the gas atoms energy so it runs faster, it speeds up the chance of gas exert on the wall. it can also be explained as, in a period of time, more gas atoms have exerted to the wall of container.
If the size of the container is increased atoms have further to travel between collisions with the wall so collisions are less frequent and thus the pressure exerted is reduced.
If you are in a frictionless room, you can't push off of anything to exert enough force to move away. However, if you have a bottle of compressed gas or liquid, the force of the escaping gas from the container will exert a reaction force to push you where you need to go. If you are near a wall, you can push off of that.
When gas molecules collide with the walls of the container, the collision is elastic. ie. Momentum before collision = Momentum after collision. Hence, the gas molecule imparts a certain momentum to the wall. As there are a large no of gas molecules, a large no of molecules collide with the wall every second. Change in momentum per unit time (per second) is force. Force per unit area is pressure. This is the pressure exerted by gas molecules.yes.. when applied with Boyle's law and Charles law and Gay Lussac's law, It can explain the pressure exerted by the gases
It is because of the continuous bombardment of liquid molecules on the wall.
'This is because the air particles are bumpinginto each other and the walls. When this happens it causes pressure on the walls because of the speed the air particles are moving
Kinetic theory explains the pressure that a gas exerts on the walls of its container. This describes elastic collisions between the atoms or molecules in the gas with the container's walls, which collectively exert a measureable pressure.
Pressure is simply the constant bombardment of atoms against a container's wall. The hotter the substance inside the container, the faster the atoms are moving, thereby making the pressure increase.

gas pressure
Assuming constant amount of gas and temperature, pressure will increase as volume decreases. Conversely, pressure will decrease as volume increases. If you squeeze on a filled balloon, the volume decreases. The pressure of the air on each square inch of the balloon increases, which causes it to eventually pop if the pressure gets too high. Assuming constant amount of gas, a temperature change will already change the volume of the gas. As temperature rises, the gas expands, causing more pressure to be exerted on the balloon. Assuming constant temperature, adding more gas also increases the volume and thus increases the pressure.

The number and vibration of the molecules that make up the gas cause the pressure.
Due to the that the pressure exerted by a liquid increase with its depth. Thus as depth increase, more and more pressure is exert by water on the wall of dam. A thick wall is required to withstand a great pressure, therefore, the wall of the dam is made with thickness increasing towards the base
If the size of the container is increased atoms have further to travel between collisions with the wall so collisions are less frequent and thus the pressure exerted is reduced.
