Ever hear of blood pressure? You're pushing back.
Our bodies are constantly under pressure from the atmosphere, but our internal pressure matches the external pressure, so there is no net force pushing on us. Additionally, our bodies contain fluids and structures that help distribute and balance the forces acting on us, preventing us from being crushed by the atmospheric pressure. The pressure inside our bodies is equal to the pressure outside, keeping us in equilibrium.
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.
Atmospheric pressure does not crush our lungs because the pressure inside our bodies is equal to the pressure outside. This balance allows our lungs to expand and contract without being crushed.
Yes, gauge pressure includes atmospheric pressure. Gauge pressure is the pressure measured above atmospheric pressure, so it accounts for the atmospheric pressure as a reference point.
Gauge pressure is the pressure measured relative to atmospheric pressure, while atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted by the Earth's atmosphere on a surface. Gauge pressure accounts for atmospheric pressure, while atmospheric pressure is the total pressure exerted by the atmosphere.
We do not feel the atmospheric pressure - roughly 101kPa - because our bodies have adapted to it, to the point where the pressure in our bodies exactly balances the external pressure, resulting in no net force on your body.
Yes, we do feel the effects of atmospheric pressure, although we may not always be aware of it. Atmospheric pressure exerts a force on our bodies, but because it is uniform, we don't typically notice it. However, changes in atmospheric pressure, such as during weather changes or altitude shifts, can lead to sensations like ear popping or headaches. Additionally, our bodies are adapted to function optimally at specific pressure levels, and significant deviations can affect our health and comfort.
We do not feel the earths atmospheric pressure because it is the same everywhere all round us. The body can only really feel pressure differences. Try this, put your finger in your mouth and suck. Your finger and indeed the inside of you mouth will feel the pressure difference you create. Also sometimes if you go up in a lift or are in a car, bus or plane that goes up or down, you may feel pressure changes in your ears. This is because the pressure in your middle ear takes time to equalize with the atmospheric pressure changes caused as you go up and down in altitude.

All living things have evolved under this very heavy mass of air, and as a result, they have all evolved to exert an equal and opposite pressure internally. It requires no effort and no one feels this, of course; the body does this quite naturally.
Atmospheric pressure does not crush our lungs because the pressure inside our bodies is equal to the pressure outside. This balance allows our lungs to expand and contract without being crushed.
The substance that helps balance atmospheric pressure in the body is nitrogen. Nitrogen is present in the air we breathe and enters our bloodstream, helping equalize pressure within our bodies with the external atmospheric pressure.
Humans don't get crushed by the weight of the atmosphere because our bodies are filled with fluids and gases that exert pressure outward, counteracting the atmospheric pressure acting on us. Additionally, the atmospheric pressure is evenly distributed across our bodies, so there is no net force that would cause us to be crushed. Our physiological structures are adapted to this pressure, allowing us to function normally in the presence of atmospheric weight.
Our bodies are made to withstand the atmospheric pressure around us. This pressure is evenly distributed inside and outside our bodies, so we don't get crushed. Additionally, our body tissues contain fluids that help balance the internal pressure.
14.7 pounds. Atmospheric pressure is 14.7 pounds per square inch Keep in mind that unless air is trapped you do not feel this as pressure is equalized
