Assume your lungs have a capacity of 0.5 l at the waters surface as you dive the water pressure increases to twice its surface value what is your lung capacity at this location?

this is apex right? im figuring it out too.
0.5l and it increased by 2. so i think the real question is, does lung capacity increase or decrease as pressure increases.
and i think it decreases. so divide by 2
0.75

The answer is .25. You multiple 0.5 because when you dive, the pressure is twice its surface value.

When atmospheric pressure increases what happpens to the boiling temperature of a liquid?
The boiling temperature of a liquid increases as the gas pressure a the liquid's surface increases.
What increases the capacity of the atrium?
The capacity of the atrium increases when a wrinkled structure called the auricle is attached to the surface of an atrium. Because of this, there is an increase in the blood volume.
What happens to the atmosheric pressure when the height above the surface of earth increases?
Pressure decreases
Does pressure and temperature increase or decrease with depth below earths surface?
it increases
Where the pressure is greater 10m above the surface of the sea 20m below the surface of the sea?
Pressure increases the deeper you sink beneath the surface of the sea. So 20 metres below the surface has more pressure than 10 metres above the surface.
What happens to pressure of the force exerted on a given area increases?
The pressure exerted outward by fluids in your body balances the pressure exerted by the atmosphere on the surface of your body. the pressure increases
How does pressure change as you go from the surface toward the center if the earth?
The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure

The pressure increases as you go deeper. The deeper you go the greater the pressure
Why does the height of the column in a barometer changes as atmospheric pressure changes?
As the atmospheric pressure changes, the force pushing on the surface of the liquid changes. Therefore,the height of the liquid in the tube increases as the atmospheric pressure increases.
