GAS LAWS PROJECT PART ONE ▪ S.C.U.B.A: Self Contained Underwater Apparatus. ▪ Boyle’s Law states that given a constant temperature‚ the volume of a gas varies inversely as the absolute pressure. ▪ Charle’s Law states that given a constant pressure‚ the volume of a gas varies directly as the absolute temperature. This law is sometimes referred to as Gay-Lussac’s Law. ▪ Dalton’s Law states that the total pressures exerted by a mixture of the pressures exerted by each of the gases. ▪

and the physical effects on the body. Scuba diving is a sport that many people enjoy but hardly understand the physics behind. The journey from the pressure of the atmosphere to the deeper depths of the seas is not just a trip that involves breathing air out of a tank and looking at fish. If we were to go on an imaginary journey beginning at the surface and traveling to the bottom of a 300 foot lake your body would under go a change in pressure nearly of 10 times. The physics behind diving

EFFECT OF ATMOSPHERIC PRESSURE ON THE ENVIROMENT THE BIOSPHERE Variations in atmospheric pressure can present special problems for the respiratory systems of animals because atmospheric pressure affects the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide that occurs during animal respiration. Normal atmospheric pressure at sea level is the total pressure that a column of air above the surface of the Earth exerts (760 millimetres of mercury‚ or 1 atmosphere)

Change in respiratory rate during exercise Aim: To record and investigate how the breathing rate varies for the duration of light and heavy exercise. Introduction: When an individual exercises‚ the muscles being used needs extra energy from oxygen. The lungs pump oxygen to the heart‚ and then the heart pumps the oxygenated blood through the blood to the particular muscle that is working. The human body has a series of organs working together‚ which is named the respiration system. The organs involved
