Gas laws. The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure on the gas.
\n" ); document.write( "v = k/p
\n" ); document.write( "------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "If the volume is 6 cubic centimeters when the pressure on the gas is 8 kilograms per square centimeter,
\n" ); document.write( "Solve for \"k\":
\n" ); document.write( "6 = k/8
\n" ); document.write( "k = 48
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore equation: v = 48/p
\n" ); document.write( "---------------------------------------\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "then what is the volume when the pressure is 12 kilograms per square centimeter?
\n" ); document.write( "v = 48/12
\n" ); document.write( "v = 4 cubic centimeters
\n" ); document.write( "==============================
