14.69 pounds per square inch (psi).

2,115.36 pounds per square foot.

19,038.24 pounds per square yard.

58,972,852,224 pounds per square mile.

If you want to calculate the complete gravitational force of Earth, find the area (in square miles) and multiply it by 58,972,852,224. That will give you, in pounds, the complete gravitational force of Earth.

What is the force exerted by air in a given are known as?

Air Pressure


What causes the pressure exerted by a fluid?

The pressure in a moving fluid which is exerted parallel to the direction of flow, caused by the inertial effects of the mass of the fluid. Also called DYNAMIC PRESSURE or VELOCITY PRESSURE. -Contributing Website Staff www.endevco.com


Weight of air pressing down?

Air pressure.


What prevents mercury in the tube of a barometer from running out into the container at the bottom of the tube?

The top of a barometric tube is sealed leaving no place for air to escape. It works along the same principle as a drinking straw, but in reverse. In a drinking straw, the sucking motion reduces the pressure of the air inside the straw to a lower level than the air outside the straw. Liquid resists changes in volume due to pressure and is drawn up through the tube due to the air pressure exerted on the surface of the liquid outside the straw. In a barometric tube the tube is sealed at one end, trapping a finite amount of gas in the tube. The air pressure inside and outside the tube is equal, keeping the mercury suspended at a certain level. If the pressure outside is raised, more force is exerted on the surface of the mercury outside the tube than on the surface inside. This raises the level of the mercury in the tube until the pressure of the air is equalized -- there is still just as much air in the tube, but a smaller volume at a greater pressure.


Is the pressure greater on the inside or outside of the plane?

the pressure is high out side the plane because the air moves around quickly.

What Air pressure exerted equally on an object from different directions is what type of pressure?

Air pressure exerted equally on an object from different directions is called hydrostatic pressure. This type of pressure is exerted by fluids, such as water or air, due to the weight of the fluid pressing down on an object.


What is the force exerted by air in all directions?

The force exerted by air in all directions is called air pressure. It is caused by the collisions of air molecules with surfaces. Air pressure is exerted equally in all directions and decreases as altitude increases.

The pressure of air outside the body is called atmospheric pressure. It is the force exerted by the weight of the air in the Earth's atmosphere on a surface.


What the weight of air called?

The weight of air is called air pressure. There is no way around air pressure and it must be calculated into anything having to do with physics.


What is air pressure or atmosphic pressure?

Air pressure and atmospheric pressure are the same things, just called differently. It refers to the weight of air being exerted on an object.


What is the force exerted by the weight of the air is called what?

The force exerted by the weight of the air is called atmospheric pressure. It results from the weight of the air above pushing down on the air below, creating a pressure gradient that affects weather patterns and influences the movement of air masses.
