explain effects of atmospheric pressure?
Answers
Atmospheric pressure is an indicator of weather.
➡️When a low-pressure system moves into an area, it usually leads to cloudiness, wind, and precipitation.
➡️High-pressure systems usually lead to fair, calm weather.
➡️A barometer measures atmospheric pressure, which is also called barometric pressure.
Our bodies are unable to adjust quickly to changes in atmospheric pressure. If we travel higher altitudes and the drop in pressure is too great, we may suffer from a condition called altitude sickness. At high altitudes, passengers on an airplane are at risk of suffering from the effects of low atmospheric pressure. To protect the passengers, the air is pumped into an airplane cabin as the airplane ascends. This reduces the drop in pressure inside the cabin and prevents passengers from experiencing a great pressure change.
