  • Understanding Air Pressure: How It Affects Your Body
    The force that air exerts on your body is called air pressure.

    Here's why:

    * Air has weight: Even though we can't see or feel it, air has mass and is pulled down by gravity.

    * Weight creates pressure: This weight of air pushes down on everything, including your body. The force of this push is what we call air pressure.
