    Air pressure is produced by gas particles that move freely and hit the walls of their container. Air pressure increases with decreasing volume or increasing temperature as these factors increase the number and speed of particle collisions. The principle of air pressure states that air will flow from regions of higher to lower pressure as there is a force pushing air down pressure gradients. Many devices like syringes, siphons, and straws utilize differences in air pressure to function.

    AIR PRESSURE

    SCIENCE FORM 2

    AIR PRESSURE Produces when the air around us presses on the surfaces of the objects that are in it.

    A gas consists of many particles which are apart from each other The particles move freely in all directions The particles continuously hit the walls of the container and bounce back A force is exerted by the particles on the walls of the container This force produces a pressure on the walls of the container

    KINETIC THEORY OF GASES

    AIR PRESSURE

    Air pressure is higher at sea level than on top of mountain

    FACTORS AFFECTING AIR PRESSURE IN A CLOSED CONTAINER


    FACTOR RELATIONSHIP EXPLANATION The air particles move in a smaller space More particles Volume decreases, hit the walls of Air pressure container increases Larger force is produced Higher pressure acts on the wall

    Volume

    FACTORS AFFECTING AIR PRESSURE IN A CLOSED CONTAINER


    FACTOR RELATIONSHIP EXPLANATION Air particles move faster More particles hit the walls of container Larger force is produced Higher pressure acts on the wall

    Temperature

    Temperature increases, Air pressure increases

    THE PRINCIPLE OF AIR PRESSURE

    PRINCIPLE OF AIR PRESSURE

    Air will flow from a region of higher air pressure to a region of lower air pressure. This movement of air is caused by a force acting in the direction of higher to lower air pressure.

    PRINCIPLE OF AIR PRESSURE

    If a surface lies between two regions of different air pressures, a force will act on the surface in the direction of higher to lower air pressure.

    APPLICATION OF THE PRINCIPLE OF AIR PRESSURE

    SYRINGE
    When the piston is pulled upwards, the volume of air in the barrel increases The air pressure in it is reduced The higher outside pressure forces the water through the needle into the barrel

    SIPHON

    The bent tube is filled with water (siphon) has low pressure in it The higher outside pressure pushes the water into the tube The water flows out of the tube

    DRINKING STRAW
    Sucking removes the air inside the straw producing low pressure The higher pressure outside pushes the water into the straw

    POURING MILK FROM CAN

    When the milk flows out of the can, the pressure inside the can is reduced The second hole allows air to enter the can and fill up the empty space producing equals air pressure inside and outside the can The equal pressure enable the milk to flow continuously out of the can

    SUCTION PUMP / PLUNGER


    When the plunger is pushed down, the air under the rubber sucker is force out and reduce the air pressure When the plunger is pull, the volume of air under the rubber sucker increases and further reduce the air pressure The higher external air pressure pushes and loosens the blockage which will then flow out with the water

    GAS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE

    GAS UNDER HIGH PRESSURE

    Gas can be changed to liquid (liquefied gases) when they are compressed under high pressure.
