2.
A balloon contains 6 m3 of helium at a pressure of 100 kPa. As the balloon rises through
the atmosphere, the pressure falls and the balloon expands. Assuming that the
temperature does not change, what is the volume of the balloon when the pressure has
fallen to
a. 50 kPa
b. 40kPa? [4]

Respuesta :

Answer:

a) P1=100kpa

V1=6m³

V2=?

P2=50kpa

rearranging mathematically the expression for Boyle's law

V2=(P1V1)/P2=(100×6)/50=12m³

b) same apartment as in (a) but only the value of P2 changes

=> V2=(100×6)/40=15m³

Explanation:

since temperature is not changing we use Boyle's law. mathematically expressed as P1V1=P2V2
