It just means that the pressure you're measuring is
approximately the same as Earth's air pressure at sea level.

What do you mean by the statement 'the atmospheric pressure is 1 ATM?
That's just circular : it's a self description.
How big is air pressure?
I'll assume you mean atmospheric pressure, which is generally stated to be 101,325 Pascals... 101,325 Pa 101.325 kPa 760 torr 760 mmHg 1 ATM 1 bar
Why would a balloon inside a bell jar inflate when pressure is decreased within the jar?
The balloon exists in a separate pressure system from the bell jar itself.As the balloon is open to the surrounding air, the pressure within the balloon is 1 atm (1 atmospheric unit of pressure = 105 Pa).When pressure is decreased within the jar, the pressure within the jar decreases to a value lower than 1 atm. Therefore, to counter the low pressure created in the jar, the atmospheric air moves into the balloon and pushes the balloon into the jar to attempt to equalize the pressure in the balloon and in the jar. Therefore the balloon inflates.
What is the expected pressure of air in lungs of a diver at 4 meters below the sea level?
Air pressure (at sea level) is about 1 bar; every 10 meters below the water surface, pressure increases by about 1 bar - that gives a total of 1 + 0.4 = 1.4 bar. (1 bar is about 1 atmosphere.)
The atmospheric pressure at the summit of MtMcKinley is 606 mm Hg on a certain day What is the pressure in ATM and in kPa?
The standard atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi which is equal to 1014 millibars and 760 mm Hg. Therefore 606 mm Hg = 606/760 of an atmosphere = 0.797 atm. Therefore in millibars it is 0.797 x 1014 = 808.5 mb. Now 1 mb = 100 Pa = 0.1 kPa, so 808.5 mb = 80.85 kPa.
How standard atmospheric pressure is related to pascal?
1 atm (standard atmospheric pressure) is 101,325 kPa.
How standard atmospheric pressure relates to pascale?
1 atm (standard atmospheric pressure) is 101,325 kPa.
What is 1 atm-?
It's a measure of pressure. Specifically, it's the amount of pressure exerted by the air in the atmosphere at sea level.
What is the pressure in ATM at the normal boiling point of water?
At the standard atmospheric pressure of 101325 Pa water boils exact at 100 degrees Celsius.
What is 1 ATM at 0 degrees Celsius?
water boils at zero degrees then atmospheric pressure will be...........
What is the conversion factor to change atmospheres to pascals?
1 atm(atmospheric pressure)=101,325pa(pascals)
What does 14.7 psia represent?
14.7 psia represents standard atmospheric pressure, or 1 atm. PSIA is just psi with atmospheric pressure taken into account also.
What is an acceptable abbreviation for room temperature 298K and atmospheric pressure 1 atm?
The abbreviation STP for "Standard Temperature and Pressure."
What do you mean by the statement 'the atmospheric pressure is 1 ATM?
That's just circular : it's a self description.
What is equivalent to 1 ATM?
The atmospheric pressure (1 atm) is 101,325 Pa. In practice, it is usually approximated to 1 bar (100,000 Pa).In terms on barometric readings, it is 760 mmHg.
What is the pressure in atmospheres on the body of a diver if he is 21 ft below the surface when the atmospheric pressure at the surface is 0.94 atm?
The pressure of freshwater increases by 1 atm for each 34 ft of depth. The pressure of seawater increases by 1 atm for each 33 ft of depth. If surface pressure is 0.97 atm, simply add that pressure to the pressure of the water. For seawater, you are exactly 1 atm below the surface... So: 1 atm + 0.97 atm = 1.97 atm For freshwater, divide 33 by 34 to get the fraction of an atmosphere you're adding to your surface pressure: 33/34 * 1 = 0.97 atm Then add that number to the surface pressure: 0.97 + 0.97 = 0.94 atm
What is atmospheric pressure at sea level and at 0 degrees Celsius called?
1 ATM of pressure and 0 c is known as 'Standard temperature and pressure' (STP)
