Overview the mathematical expression for Boyle’s law: for a constant mass of a gas at a constant temperature, its pressure is inversely proportional to its volume. In other words, under the conditions specified the product of the volume of a gas by its pressure is a constant, that:
Where:
P1 and V1 are initial pressure and volume,
P2 and V2 are final pressure and volume.
Significance Fundamental to gas behavior in engines, air compressors, and diving physics.
