How does air pressure affect air movement?
Air pressure affects air movement because air moves from high pressure to low pressure. The air pressure pushes or will press the air around.
Why do you mentioning the boiler pressure in 'ata'?
Normal atmospheric pressure is abbreviated as atm. But when computing for the amount of total pressure exerted on an object at a specific depth or elevation, including normal atmospheric pressure, then the abbreviation ata is used. It stands for atmospheric pressure absolute.
What is the relation between pressure and force?
Pressure is defined as force per area
What is gauge pressure?
From a nursing perspective... The gauge of the needle tells us the size of the lumen (inside) of the tube. Size 18 is big whilst size 30 is small. If we want a substance that we're injecting to have low pressure (ie if cleaning a wound with saline and not wanting it to hurt or disturb the healing and using a syringe to apply it) then we use a large size (ie 16). Hope this helps Gauge pressure is the pressure recorded on the gage that records above the atmospheric pressure. Normal atomospheric pressure is 14.7psi. So if a gage read 10 psi of gage pressure, then the true pressure would be 24.7 psi. Hope this is right.
What is the relationship between air pressure and wind?
pressure = 0.002558 times velocity squared where velocity is miles per hour and pressure is pounds per square foot for example a wind of 75 mph produces a pressure of 0.002558x75x75 = 14 .39 pounds per square foot since there are 144 sq in in one sq ft that is 14.39/144 = 0.1 pounds per square inch In meteorological terms, differences in pressure are what drive wind. Air generally moves toward an area of low pressure. However, due to the rotation of the earth it gets deflected in large scale weather patterns. It is deflected to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern hemisphere.
