Question

what are the effects of atmospheric pressure

Answer 1

Air pressure effect. Motion sickness . Air pressure is the force that is exerted on you by air molecules, being the weight of tiny airparticles. atmospheric pressure is a measure of the force exerted by the atmosphere, so therefore at any point on the earth's surface, there is a quantity of air sitting above your body.

Answer 2

Atmospheric pressure is the weight of the atmosphere on a surface. The units for atmospheric pressure are conveniently known as atmospheres (atm) and the average pressure at sea level is set at 1 atmosphere (atm).

On average, the weight of the atmosphere on a square inch is 14.7 pounds at sea level. This means if you were to extended a 1-inch column from sea level to the edge of our atmosphere, all the gases inside would weigh 14.7 pounds. Another way to think about it is, if you put your hand out, there is more or less 175 pounds of atmosphere weighing down on it, and a standard 8.5 x 11 piece of paper has over 1300 pounds weighing down on it.

So why doesn't it crush us? Luckily we have evolved to deal with it and not notice it. In fact, we would have big problems if there wasn't all that pressure keeping us together.
