Gas Laws and Our Lives Period 5 March 2012
Guns and the Gas Laws:1. Boyles Law
The temperature stays constant.When you fire a gun friction is caused. The pressure increases causing the air trapped inside to push constantly on the object causing the volume to increase.
2. Charles LawThe pressure stays constant. When the gun is being fired the temperature increases causing the volume to increase. The air molecules are very excited and jumpy putting constant pressure on the gun.
3. Gay-Lussacs The volume stays constant. The guns space only remains the same until the gun is shot, increase the temperature and the pressure. When the pressure increases the volume inside the gun also increases, its a domino effect.
4. Ideal Gas LawThe R stays constant.when the ideal gas law is applied 1 gas is being used. The pressure the gun is using has to be measured in atm, the temperature must be in Kelvins, and the volume in liters. This situation relates to all 3 above.
Temperature increases and therefore Pressure increases as well because of the molecules
that move faster.Gay Lussac’s law
Kahaila Lawson
Kahaila- as the temp in the can increases, the volume of the can increase. Allowing the can to be crushed to be recycled.
Pressure
Body spray deals with pressure because the liquid inside is being compressed (or pressure is added to it) and that’s why it comes out at the force that is does.

The next time you boil water or jump in the pool, notice how the water bubbles gets bigger as they rise. This has to do with Boyle’s law because the deeper the water the more pressure. In this case as the bubbles rise up to the surface the pressure decreases and the volume increases. This caught my attention because i never noticed it, and I didn’t know it had something to do with pressure.

Selena Morales Period 5Boyles law : Relates Volume and Pressure at a constant Temperature. Volume decreases causing Pressure to increase, Pressure increases causing volume to decrease.
When fish are brought to surface pressure from the water is removed and the volume of gases in their bodies increases causing their cells, membranes , and bladders to burst. Which is why they die out of water.
When the pressure is increased by sucking the air molecules out causing the bullet to want to restrict its size with the air molecules pushing out (assuming that the bullet isn’t solid metal) - Gay Lussac’s Law.
