Atmospheric pressure is a force in an area pushed against a surface by the weight of the atmosphere of Earth, a layer of air.

The 3 main factors that affect Atmospheric pressure are:

• Temperature
• Altitude or Elevation.
• Moisture ow water vapour

Answer 2

Answer:

Temperature: When the temperature of a place increases, the atmospheric pressure decreases. ... On the contrary, a decrease in temperature makes the air cool and dense. This creates a high-pressure area in a region. Altitude: Atmospheric pressure decreases with an increase in the altitude.
