Why you do not feel air pressure although there is a tall column of air above us?
If the human body was hollow and contained a vacuum, we would then feel the air pressure. However, our lungs contain air, so the internal pressure is the same as the external pressure. Air pressure is perfectly balanced everywhere it is in contact with us, and all of our internal fluids, blood, lymph, etc., are under pressure, and balance the pressure that the air exerts. If a human being were to be exposed to the vacuum of outer space, our pressurized internal fluids would explode. We can only feel a difference in pressure, we do not feel perfectly balanced pressures, within and without.
What controls air masses?
Ultimately - the Sun. The sun warms the atmosphere facing towards it. This reduces the air pressure, and cooler air moves in to equalise the pressure. This creates what we feel as wind.
Does air movement go warm to warm?
Air movement can occur from warm to cool or cool to warm, depending on the temperature gradient between the two air masses. In general, air moves from areas of higher pressure to lower pressure, which can influence its temperature.
Is air pressure at the bottom of thr grand canyon high or low?
The air pressure at the bottom of the Grand Canyon is higher than at the rim due to the weight of the air above it compressing the air molecules. This can make it feel hotter and more humid at the bottom compared to the top.
What uses air pressure to work?

Which is that thing which can be feel but cant see?
Air,Gravity.
Why do you not feel weight of air pressing on you?
You do feel the weight of air pressing on you, but since our bodies are accustomed to this pressure from the atmosphere, we don't consciously perceive it. The air pressure inside our bodies balances the external pressure, resulting in a neutral sensation.
Why cant we live on the ocean?
No air to breath and the pressure would be to great.
What is the relationship between the air pressure and how high above the earth you are?
the higher you are, the higher the air pressure, thats why airoplanes cant go too high, there is less oxygen and more air pressure
Why does a soda can feel squishy?
A soda can may feel squishy because the air pressure inside the can is lower than the air pressure outside, causing the can to collapse slightly.
you can feel and breath me but you cant see or touch me what am i :hint it keeps you alive?
oxygen ( or air )
Why we don't feel the weight of air on our head?
We don't feel the weight of air on our heads because air pressure is exerted uniformly in all directions, including upwards and downwards. This means that the pressure pushing down on us from the atmosphere is balanced by the pressure exerted by our bodies and the air inside us. Additionally, our bodies are adapted to this constant pressure, making it imperceptible in our daily experience.
What controls air masses?
Ultimately - the Sun. The sun warms the atmosphere facing towards it. This reduces the air pressure, and cooler air moves in to equalise the pressure. This creates what we feel as wind.
Why is it that you can feel the blow dryers hot air but cant see it?
Air does not absorb or reflect enough light to be visible, regardless of what temperature it is.
Why does a tire feel harder on a hot day?
The air inside the tire heats up, building the pressure. The pressure is exerted on the walls of the tire, making it feel harder.
Why does air exert pressure?
Air exerts pressure in the same way that water exerts pressure on a diver. Air has weight, and because we are at the bottom of a blanket of air that surrounds the earth, the weight of that air is pressing down on us (creating pressure). If you go under water, you'll feel the additional pressure created by the weight of the water above you.
