Answer:

Atmospheric pressure, also known as barometric pressure, is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth. The standard atmosphere is a unit of pressure defined as 101,325 Pa, which is equivalent to 760 mm Hg, 29.9212 inches Hg, or 14.696 psi.

It is the force exerted on a surface by the air above it as gravity pulls it to Earth. Atmospheric pressure is commonly measured with a barometer. In a barometer, a column of mercury in a glass tube rises or falls as the weight of the atmosphere changes.

Formula :-

P_h= P_0 e^{\frac {-mgh}{kT}}

P_h = pressure at height h

P_0 = sea level pressure

g = acceleration due to gravity

k = Boltzmann's constant (ideal gas constant divided by Avogadro's number)

T = absolute temperature

m = mass of one air molecule
