What is atmospheric pressure?

• The force exerted by the weight of tiny particles of air (air molecules)

• The amount of heat in the atmosphere

• The moisture content in the atmosphere

• The speed of air moving from one place to another

As you go up in altitude, what happens to atmospheric pressure?

• It increases

• It decreases

• It stays the same

• It fluctuates unpredictably

How is wind related to air pressure?

• Wind is caused by air moving from areas of high pressure to low pressure

• Wind is caused by air moving from areas of low pressure to high pressure

• Wind is unrelated to air pressure

• Wind is caused by the rotation of the Earth only
