Cross Connection Control...Vocabulary 1... - ANSWER
What is atmospheric pressure? - ANSWER Atmospheric
pressure is the amount of force or pressure exerted by the
atmosphere on the objects located within it. The more pressure
there is, the stronger that force will be, or the harder the
atmosphere will push against animals, plants, rocks, and the
surface of the Earth.
Why does the atmosphere exert pressure?...A...of A, B, C, D, E &
F... - ANSWER Everything around you is made up of tiny particles
called molecules. Unlike solids and liquids, the molecules
making up a gas, such as the gases in our atmosphere, are not
bound to each other at all. They are free to move about,
bumping into each other as well as into liquids and solids. And...

pressure...B...of A, B, C, D, E & F...Molecules in our atmosphere
compress, creating pressure. As the molecules of the
atmosphere move around, bumping into objects such as your
body, they create a pressure.
Continued...why does the atmosphere exert pressure?...C...of A,
B, C, D, E & F? From what direction is pressure coming from? -
ANSWER ...And...continued...atmospheric pressure...C...of A, B,
C, D, E & F...direction of pressure...This pressure is
omnidirectional, meaning that it is not only exerted from above,
but also from beneath, from the sides, and from every direction
at once. And...
Continued...why does the atmosphere exert pressure...D...of A,
B, C, D, E & F? How is atmospheric pressure quantified and
measured? - ANSWER ...And...continued...atmospheric
pressure...quantification...D...of A, B, C, D, E & F...At sea level,
the amount of pressure exerted by our atmosphere is about
14.7 pounds per square inch...meaning an object will have 14.7
pounds of pressure pushing against every square inch of the
object.

by us...1 of 2? - ANSWER ...And...continued...atmospheric
pressure...why not noticed...1 of 2...E...of A, B, C, D, E & F...Yet,
as we move around in the atmosphere, we are unaware of this
pressure. We do not feel it because our bodies are made up of
gases that are at the same pressure. And...

by us...2 of 2? - ANSWER ...And...continued...atmospheric
pressure...why not noticed...2 of 2...F...of A, B, C, D, E & F...In
other words, the gases within our bodies actually push back
outward at the same pressure.
1.1 Absolute Pressure - ANSWER Pressure measured on a scale
where a perfect vacuum is zero. Absolute pressure is the sum of
gauge pressure and atmospheric pressure.
1.2 Accessible - ANSWER Capable of being reached for testing
and maintenance, when referring to a backflow prevention
assembly. However, it first may require the removal of an access
