it's the same principal though... although isn't it the water in the air which gives it weight?elpmis said:not really, not with water, strictly because water weighs a shitload and is uber dense

Any portion with an air pocket would be compressedCoqui said:What if it's dehydrated
Um, it still changes the forces exerted on the body. Air pressure is still pressure against your skin.elpmis said:and fly and I were talking about net force effects on the body
Air has weight regardless of the amount of water in it, any molecule has weight.zengirl said:it's the same principal though... although isn't it the water in the air which gives it weight?
So fancy this... if it's the water in the air which gives it weight, when we go 500 miles into the Earth, it stands to reason that it would be very hot... would it be hot enough to evaporate the water that is in the air thus causing a reduction in pressure?elpmis said:
yeah but dude I wasn't talking about air pressure we were talking about the gravity force you feel aka F = G * M * (your mass) / (radius)2ChikkenNoodul said:Um, it still changes the forces exerted on the body. Air pressure is still pressure against your skin.
Pressure cooker, hyperbaric chamber, pressure testers anyone?

I know a fair bit about air pressure, but jack shit about gravityelpmis said:i know a shit load about gravity, but not a lot about air pressure
You will remain the same weight anywhere because your mass is unchanging. You're "weight" is subjective because what you call weight is really a measure of the force that your mass creates on a flat surface. So, no, you will be the same weight in space.Coqui said:So I'll be the heaviest when I'm in outer space?
Sorry sir, but thats wrong. Your mass will always be the same, but weight depends on gravity. So you will weigh next to nothing in space.CletusJones said:You will remain the same weight anywhere because your mass is unchanging.
