Yes, pressure is the force per unit area exerted by the weight of the atmosphere above a point on the Earth's surface. This pressure decreases with increasing altitude due to the decreasing weight of the air column above.
The pressure can be calculated by dividing the force exerted (124500 N) by the area of the table (1.5 m^2). Therefore, the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere on the kitchen table is 83000 Pa (Pascals).
The pressure on your hand is balanced by the opposing forces acting on it. When you press your hand against a surface, the surface exerts an equal and opposite force back on your hand, balancing the pressure. This balance of forces prevents your hand from moving further into the surface or being pushed away.
conduction because there is more heat in space then there is in earth
In simple terms... gravity ! Gravity is holding the air close to the surface of the Earth. The further away you are from the surface - the lower the gravity - and thus the lower the air pressure.
The sun's energy is absorbed by the Earth's surface, causing it to warm up. Some of the energy is reflected back into the atmosphere or absorbed by the atmosphere. Plants and other organisms use the sun's energy through photosynthesis to produce their own food.
autmospheric pressure
the earths surface.
Air pressure is exerted in all directions throughout Earth's atmosphere, but it is stronger closer to the surface due to the weight of the air above pushing down. As you move up through the atmosphere, air pressure decreases because there is less air above exerting force downward. This is why air pressure is lower at higher altitudes.
Yes. Atmospheric pressure is the pressure caused by air when it exerts pressure on the surface of earth.
Atmospheric pressure is caused by the force of the air above the earths surface. It is measured by the point in which the air meets the atmosphere.
Pressure is the weight of an overlying column of material. The pressure at the core comes from 6400km of overlying rock, which is much denser than air
The pressure can be calculated by dividing the force exerted (124500 N) by the area of the table (1.5 m^2). Therefore, the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere on the kitchen table is 83000 Pa (Pascals).
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.
Mars has a thin atmosphere, mainly of Carbon Dioxide. Its surface pressure is around 0.7 kPa, around 0.7% of Earths surface pressure.
The average air pressure at sea level is around 1013.25 millibars or 29.92 inches of mercury.
Venus has a very thick atmosphere of Carbon dioxide. Its average surface pressure is a crushing 93 bar, or 93 times that of Earths
Thermosphere, it is also the atmosphere with the highest temperatures.
