does acceleration of earth affect atmospheric pressure?

Question

if acceleration due to gravity on earth were to increase suddently, would this affect atmospheric pressure?

Answer 1

respecting the laws of newton it would. taking into account that air has very little mass though... the change i think will me minimal

the earth however is at a stable speed. so either way it doesnt realy matter.

Answer 2

Yes but no. I think you are confusing velocity, acceleration, and gravity. An increase in gravity and acceleration would cause a change pressure. The change from both would be slight. A higher velocity could also increase pressure, but only because it would cause the earth to shrink, time to slow, and its mass to increase. I hope I answered your question it was kind of confusing.
