Use Boyle’s law to calculate the pressure on the same balloon if it instead expands to twice its volume.
Pressure
Answer to Problem 24A
The pressure
Explanation of Solution
Given:
Initial internal pressure,
Balloon is expanded to twice its volume.
Formula Used:
From Boyle’s law, at constant temperature
Where,
Calculation:
Let the final internal pressure be
As, balloon is expanded to twice its volume.
So, final volume is
On putting the give values in the formula,
So, the final pressure is halved.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the pressure
