If a flexible air-filled container has a volume of 40 cu ft on the surface, what would the volume be at 99 feet in sea water

Respuesta :

Answer:

50 cu ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of flexible air filled container at 99 feet in sea water is 10 cu.ft.

What is Boyle's law?

Boyle's Law states that If the temperature is constant, the volume of a  gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure.

V 1/V2 =P2/P1

V2 = P1 x V1 /P2

Substitute 60 psi for P2, 14.7 psi for P1 and 40cu.ft for V1, we get the volume V2

V2 = 40 x 14.7 / 60

V2 = 9.8 cu.ft

Volume is approximately 10 cu.ft.

Thus, the volume of flexible air filled container at 99 feet in sea water is 10 cu.ft.
