Question

Match each context to the type of the law that is most suitable for it.

Boyle’s Law

Charles’ Law

Pascal’s Law

(Match them to the context it goes to)

At constant temperature, the volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure to which it is subjected.

A change in pressure at an point in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted un diminished to all points in the fluid.

At constant pressure, the volume of a confined gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

Answer 1

• Boyle’s Law

At constant temperature, the volume of a confined gas is inversely proportional to the pressure to which it is subjected.

• Charles’ Law

At constant pressure, the volume of a confined gas is directly proportional to the absolute temperature.

• Pascal’s Law

A change in pressure at an point in an enclosed fluid at rest is transmitted undiminished to all points in the fluid.

Further explanation

• Charles’ Law

When the gas pressure is kept constant, the gas volume is proportional to the temperature

`\tt (V_1)/(T_1)=(V_2)/(T_2)`

• Boyle’s Law

At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied

`\tt P_1.V_1=P_2.V_2`

• Pascal’s Law

The pressure exerted by the liquid in a closed space is continued in all directions equally

`\tt P_1=P_2\\\\(F_1)/(A_1)=(F_2)/(A_2)`
