The difference is that water is an incompressible fluid — its density is almost constant as the pressure changes — while air is a compressible fluid — its density changes with pressure. ... Atmospheric pressure is the pressure exerted on a surface by the weight of the atmosphere (a compressible fluid)

➣ AnSwer :-
⟶ Air Pressure :-
- Air pressure is caused by the weight of the air molecules above.
- Even tiny air molecules have some weight, and the huge numbers of air molecules that make up the layers of our atmosphere collectively have a great deal of weight, which presses down on whatever is below.
⟶ Liquid Pressure :-
- Liquid pressure is the increase in pressure at increasing depths in a liquid.
- This pressure increases because the liquid at lower depths has to support all of the water above it.
