Q

describe boyle’s law

A

at a constant temperature, increasing the pressure of a gas will decrease the volume of the gas. visa versa. This shows an inverse relationship.

Q

example of boyle’s law

A

a-high altitude balloons can be filled with small volumes of helium. As the balloon rises in the atmosphere, the air pressure around it decreases allowing the helium gas to expand. The way the balloon teaches heights before popping

b-as one pushes on the plunger of a bicycle pump, the volume inside the pump cylinder gets smaller increasing the pressure which forces air into the tire
