4 lines
5.

A sealed syringe contains 50 mL of air at a pressure of 100 kPa. If the plunger of the syringe is pushed to reduce the volume to 25 mL, what happens to the pressure inside the syringe, assuming the temperature remains constant?

a)

The pressure decreases to 50 kPa

b)

The pressure increases to 200 kPa

c)

The pressure stays the same at 100 kPa

d)

The pressure increases to 150 kPa

6.

An airplane cabin is pressurized to 80 kPa, while the external pressure at high altitude is around 30 kPa. If an airtight plastic bottle inside the cabin has a volume of 1.5 L, what will be its new volume if the cabin?

a)
  1. 4 L

b)

30 L

c)

2 L

d)

3 L

7.

During a car accident, the airbag inflates due to a rapid compression of gas. If the volume of gas inside the airbag was originally 8.0 L at 100 kPa, and the gas is compressed to a volume of 2.0 L, what is the pressure inside the airbag once it’s fully inflated?

a)

400 kPa

b)

50 kPa

c)

200 kPa

d)

300 kPa

8.

You are pumping air into a bicycle tire. After several pumps, you notice that it becomes harder to push the pump handle. Which statement best explains this using Boyle’s Law?

a)

The volume of air inside the tire increases, decreasing the pressure.

b)

The pressure inside the tire increases as the volume of air inside decreases.

c)

The pressure inside the tire increases because more air is compressed into a smaller space.

d)

The pressure inside the tire remains constant, but the tire gets heavier.

9.

A deflated basketball has a pressure of 80 kPa when its volume is 5.0 L. After inflating, the volume decreases to 4.0 L. What is the new pressure inside the basketball?

a)

64 kPa

b)

90 kPa

c)

100 kPa

d)

120 kPa
