'''Air pressure''' is the [[scientific]] name for the [[pressure]] we experience every day due to the [[weight]] of the [[atmosphere]]. The typical air pressure at [[sea level]] is one atmosphere (1 atm, or 760 millimeters of [[mercury]]); as you climb higher, the air pressure decreases. For example, the air pressure on top of [[Mount Everest]] is less than the air pressure on top of [[Mount McKinley]].

Air pressure is used by modern industry, in the form of [[pneumatic engine]]s. [[Hydraulic engine]]s are similar to pneumatic engines, but use fluid pressure instead of air pressure, and are more precise due to the less compressible quality of the fluids used.
