Concept explainers
a.
To determine:
If anything will happen to the size of the balloon when we are diving in the ocean at a depth of
Concept introduction:
Boyle’s law states that “the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure”.
The volume and pressure at constant temperature is calculated by the formula,
b.
To determine:
If anything will happen to the size of the balloon when it slips out of the hand and floats upward before diving(assume temperature is same).
Concept introduction:
Boyle’s law states that “the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure”.
The volume and pressure at constant temperature is calculated by the formula,
c.
To determine:
The original volume of balloon if the assumed pressure at the surface of water is
Concept introduction:
Boyle’s law states that “the volume of a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the pressure”.
The volume and pressure at constant temperature is calculated by the formula,
