Why do we not feel the weight of the atmosphere?
We do not feel the weight of the atmosphere because the pressure is evenly distributed on our bodies from all directions, so we don't perceive it as a force pushing down on us.
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.
What is weight how does it feel and how do you feel it?
Weight is the measure of the force of gravity acting on an object. It can feel heavy or light depending on the amount of force exerted due to gravity on an object. You feel weight through the sensation of pressure or resistance on your body when you are supporting or carrying an object.
Does air have no weight as a result of gravity?
Air does have a weight! And it is because of gravity! Note that this is per definition true because weight is only defined in the presence of gravity. Perhaps you are confused about why the air is up in the atmosphere and not down here on the ground with us? This has to do with air pressure. You see, materials don't like to be compressed, which is what gravity tries to do. Gravity tries to compress the air to the ground, but faces increased air pressure as it does so. Basically what happens is that the air particles repulse each other and thus tend to drive them apart. This force increases if you force the particles to be closer to each other. As gravity tries to pull air down, the air pressure increases which counter balances the pull of gravity. In the end a stable system is formed where the air pressure is highest down near the ground and lowest up in the upper lays of the atmosphere. The air particles up in the atmosphere do feel gravity, but if they would move down they would feel an increased air pressure which pushes them up again!
Why don't you feel the pressure exerted by the atmosphere?
You don't feel the pressure exerted by the atmosphere because your body is used to it and is able to balance the pressure inside and outside.
Why do we not feel the weight of the atmosphere?
We do not feel the weight of the atmosphere because the pressure is evenly distributed on our bodies from all directions, so we don't perceive it as a force pushing down on us.
Why don't you feel the weight of the air column that stretches from your head to the top of the atmosphere?
You don't feel the weight of the air column because the air pressure inside your body and the air pressure outside your body are equalized. This balance prevents you from feeling the weight of the column of air pressing down on you.
Why is air pressure greatest at the Earth's surface?
Because as you get closer to the surface of the earth, the more air that is on top of you. At the top of the atmosphere, there is no air, and everything is a vacuum, where you have no weight. When you get close to the earth, the weight of the air builds until it when you're at the very lowest point of the earths surface, all the air in the atmosphere above you is pressing down.

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.
Why does it feel good to get your temples massaged?
When you have a headache, it feels good to get your templates massaged. When you are pressing on the temples, you are pressing on part of your sinuses.
What happens to the air pressure as you go higher?
Air pressure decreases as you move higher in the atmosphere. Air, just like any form of matter has mass, and when affected by earth's gravity, weight. The weight of air is pushing down on you with a force of 1 atmosphere at sea level. As you increase elevation the air pressure is reduced because there is less air to push down on you. Just like air, water pressure increases as you increase your depth in it, or any fluid.
Why does girl feel like pressing breast during intercourse?
It might help her feel more pleasured by the intamacy.
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.
