Question

select all the correct answers. which statements correctly describe atmospheric pressure? its the same everywhere in the atmosphere. it pushes on all objects that are on earths surface. it can be measured in atmospheres or kilopascals. it pushes on objects in all directions. its a result of gas particles losing energy.

Explanation:

Atmospheric pressure is the force exerted by the weight of air in the atmosphere. It is measured in units like atmospheres or kilopascals. It acts on objects in all directions due to the random - motion of gas molecules in the atmosphere. It is not the same everywhere in the atmosphere (it decreases with altitude), and it is not a result of gas particles losing energy. Also, it doesn't push only on objects on Earth's surface but on all objects in the atmosphere.

Answer:

• It can be measured in atmospheres or kilopascals.
• It pushes on objects in all directions.
