Atmospheric pressure is measured by a barometer and expressed in millibars. Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level is 1,013 millibars.
Pressure is also measured in pascals, which is the pressure of 1 newton over 1 square meter. (A newton is the amount of force needed to accelerate 1 kilogram by 1 meter per second per second.
'atmosphere' itself is a unit , abbreviated as atm. 1atm=1.013 x 105.
In the English system, pressure is measured in pounds per square inch. A pound per square inch is equal to about 6,890 pascal.

Unit used to measure air pressure?

What two units are commonly used to measure air pressure?
Probably a mercury barometer and a aneroid barometer. -adrian
Are very small objects measured in kilometers?
Kilometers are units of one thousand meters, so they measure distance. Items that would be measured in kilometers are road lengths or air miles traveled.
The measure of the force with which air molecules are pushing on the Earth's surface?
This force is called atmospheric pressure, the force is measured per unit area because the bigger the area the more molecules hit. It is 14.7 pounds per square inch ("psi")
What are two different units used to measure air pressure?
The SI unit is the pascal (air pressure is about 100,000 pascal). Other units include the Bar ("standard air pressure", which approx. = that 100 kPa ), and the torr, which is approximately equal to millimetres Hg but used for measuring vacua. Air pressure is about 760 torr.
A unit by which air pressure it measured?
Air pressure is typically measured in units of either pounds per square inch (PSI) or millibars (mb). These units indicate the force exerted by the air molecules on a given area.
What is The weight of air measured in units of force per area is called?
The measure of the weight of the air above us is called air pressure. Air pressure varies depending on your location.
What units are commonly used to measured air pressure?
inches in mercury and millibars Barometers .
Two units air pressure is measured in?
kpa and pa....kpa= kilopascals and pa= pascals
How do you weigh air pressure?
Air pressure is typically measured using a barometer, which detects the force exerted by the air on a surface. This force is then converted to a pressure reading in units such as millibars or inches of mercury. The weight of air is not typically measured directly in everyday situations.
What is the thickness or thinness of the air measured by?
The thickness or thinness of the air is typically measured in terms of air pressure, which is commonly measured in units of millibars or inches of mercury. These measurements indicate the weight of the air above a specific point, with higher pressure readings indicating denser air (thicker) and lower pressure readings indicating less dense air (thinner).
What is the size of air pressure?
I'm not sure what your asking, but I am assuming you are asking in what type of units air pressure is measured. In The USA pressure is measured in P.S.I. (Pounds per Square Inch). I'm not too sure about other areas in the world.
Is weather measured in degrees?
No. Temperature is measured in degrees. Temperature is just one element of weather. There are many other things that are measured, like wind speed and air pressure, which are measured in different units. It is all of these things combined that make up the weather.No. Temperature is measured in degrees. Temperature is just one element of weather.

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.
What units measure air pressure?
Chemistry uses both the metric system and the International System (SI) units of measurements. Air pressure equations are measured in atmospheres (ATM) and Pascal's (Pa) for physical chemistry.
What is measured in inches of mercury?
Those are (somewhat outdated) pressure units.
What is air pressure measured in?
Any pressure is always expressed in (a unit of force) divided by (a unit of area). Air pressure is most commonly described in one of the following units: -- torr (millimeter of Mercury) -- pound per square inch -- Pascal (newton per square meter) -- bar (100,000 pascals)
