What will happen if a gas held at a constant temperature has an increase in pressure applied to it?
Rascal77
This is consequence of a very common law which is known as Boyle's law.
According to it when we give pressure to the gas at constant temperature the volume of gas decreases.
The gas law formula is: pV/T=k; the volume is decreasing.

Why are mantle rocks solid even though the Earth's interior temperature is very hot?
The melting temperature of materials is dependent on the pressure that is applied, whereby the higher the pressure, the higher the melting temperature. As such the rocks in the mantle are experiencing such a high pressure, that their melting point is driven up beyond the temperature within the Earth's mantle so they remain solid.
Does the volume of water affects erosion?
Yes, if depth is increased as a result. Because P=pgh, or Pressure = density x grativational acceleraton x depth, if an incarease in volum leads to an increase in depth (not length or width of a container or area), then pressure increases. Then, since P=F/a, or Pressure = Force/ area, as pressure increases, force increases (again, provided that the area of the applied force does not increase. With net force increasing, the rate of erosion will increase.
As you get closer to the Earth the air pressure decreases or increases?
in order to make things clear, I would like to explain how is the pressure measured and what does it mean... pressure is the force (weight) exerted by an object on a specific area. and by this we can define the atmospheric pressure as the weight of the column of air ,that extends from earth to the exosphere; the upper limit of our atmosphere, divided by the area. now by increasing the length of that column (and consequently increase the weight) we increase the pressure,and the same thing can be applied when decreasing the length.
What factors control wheather a rock behaves as a brittle material or a ductile material?
The amount and rate of stress applied, the type of rock, and the temperature and pressure under which the rock is strained.
Why do some rocks bend while other rocks break?
This depends on the confining pressure, the temperature and the strain rate applied to the rock mass. In general, the lower the rate of strain, the more likely ductile or plastic deformation leading to bending or folding will occur. The higher the strain rate, the more likely brittle deformation is to occur, leading to the rock "breaking". As the confining pressure increases, a materials shear strength will increase (this usually coincides with a greater depth of burial) and due to the Earth's thermal gradient an increase in temperature. As the shear strength of the rock increases, the occurrence of brittle failure is less likely while the higher temperature means that plastic deformations are more likely to occur.
What will happen if a gas is held at a constant temperature has a increase in pressure applied to it?
The volume of the gas will decrease. the gas will also attempt to increase in temperature.

What will increase the volume of gas?
change the pressure and/or the temperature of the gas
What do you do to increase the amount of pressure by whwere the force is applied?
Since Pressure is Force per Unit Area (P = F/A), there are intuitively two ways to increase pressure. You can either keep the area constant and increase the force being applied, or keep the force constant and decrease the area on which the force acts.
What would happen if a gas was held at constant temperature has an increased temperature applied to it?
It's Pressure would rise.
How automobile engine applied to Boyle's law?
As volume changes so does pressure. During the compression cycle of an engine, the volume is decreasing causing the pressure to increase. This happens so rapidly that I do not believe that temperature stays constant. For this to actually be following Boyle's law the temp is supposed to remain constant.
Will the resistance of a copper conductor decrease with an increase in the applied voltage?
If all environmental conditions remain constant then the resistance will not change appreciably with applied voltage, but the current will increase. An increase in current will raise the temperature of the conductor which will increase the resistance somewhat.

Increase this to increase the pressure?
1. Temperature of a gas 2. Force applied to a surface 3. Containing (included in closed system) mass
How do the Boyle's law is applied in a pressure cooker?
As temperature increases, so does the pressure.
What is the equation for the relationship of Boyle's law stating that the volume of a gas V varies inversely with applied pressure P?
The equation is pV=k (k is a constant at constant temperature).
What is Boyles law?
Boyle's law states that, temperature remaining constant, the volume of a fixed mass of dry gas decreases with an increase in pressure . Therefore, we can say that, temperature being constant, the volume of a given mass of dry gas is inversely proportional to the pressure applied on it. The official definition of Boyle's Law is "the product of the pressure and volume for a gas is a constant for a fixed amount of gas at a fixed temperature."
