The air that exerts pressure in the atmosphere is called Atmospheric Pressure.
Explanation:
- The air surrounding you is heavy, and it pushes against everything it comes into contact with. Atmospheric pressure, or air pressure, is the name given to this pressure. The air above a surface exerts a force on it as gravity draws it to Earth.
- When climbing to the highest peaks, mountain climbers use bottled oxygen. They also take their time acclimating to the altitude because going from a higher to a lower pressure fast can trigger decompression sickness.
- Atmospheric pressure is a weather indicator. Cloudiness, wind, and precipitation are common when a low-pressure system moves into a region. Fair and quiet weather is frequently associated with high-pressure systems.
