You do not weigh more in the air; gravity pulls on you the same way whether you are on the ground or in the air. However, you may feel lighter in the air because the upward force from the air (buoyancy) partially counteracts the downward pull of gravity.

Do bicycle pumps weigh less when they don't contain air?

Well in theory there won't be a difference in weight when at atmospheric pressure because air doesn't weigh anything on a scale open to the atmosphere but when the pump is in a vacuum and it contains air it will weigh more.


Can warm air pressure weigh more than cold air pressure?

No, warm air and cold air exert different pressures due to their different densities, but the weight of a volume of air is determined by its mass. Therefore, a mass of warm air does not weigh more than a mass of cold air, assuming the volumes are the same.

Why you weigh more in the air than in the water?

You would weigh more in the air than in the water due to the buoyant force acting against your weight in the water. In water, your body experiences an upward force opposing gravity, causing you to feel lighter. This effect makes you weigh less in water compared to being in the air.


Does an object weigh more in water or in air?

An object will typically weigh less in water compared to in air, due to the buoyant force acting on it when submerged. This is because the water exerts an upward force on the object, partially offsetting its weight.


Will the clothes be lighter if you press all the air out why?

If you were weighing the clothes on the Moon where there is no air - Then if you had the clothes in an airtight case that has bee sealed when you packed the clothes on Earth before you took them to the Moon to weigh - The the sealed case would weigh more than it would do once you had opened it on the Moon (and all the air had escaped) and re-weighed it. Thus the answer is Yes - because air has mass and therefore weighs something. Clothes + air weigh more than "airless" clothes.
