Give 2 practical applications of Boyle's Law and give a brief explanation for each. 

 

Answer:

1. Breathing     2. Scuba diving

Explanation:

1. As the lungs expand, there is a momentary reduction in the pressure. Thus, the pressure inside the body is lower than the outside. Consequently, the surrounding air slips in the body. When the lungs relax, the volume of the lungs decreases, which increases the pressure momentarily relative to the outside. And the air is exhaled from the body, therefore shows application of Boyles law.

2. When a diver enters or approaches the depth of the water body, he/she experiences high pressure. The high pressure increases the solubility of gases in the human blood. When diver tends to ascend or move upwards, the pressure begins to reduce, and the gases present in the blood begin to expand. Hence, the diver must ascend at a slow rate to avoid any sort of injury. The relation between pressure and volume indicates Boyle's law.
