A diver takes a balloon with a volume of 2.5Lfrom the surface, where the pressure is 1.0 atm, to a depth of 20m, where the pressure is 3.0 atm. What happen to the volume of the balloon? What if the end of the subnerged balloon is on a long pipe that goes to the surface and is attached to another balloon?

Answer:

The explanation is given below:

Step-by-step explanation:

As we know that the volume is inversely proportional to the volume. If the pressure is rising from 1 atm to 3 atm so the volume of the ballon would decrease

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

1.0 × 2.5L = 3 × V_2

V_2 = 0.833L

Since the air is moving from high pressure to low pressure and the two ballons are interconnected via a long pipe so the movement of the air is from bottom to top
