When the plunger is pulled, the volume inside increases. This reduces the pressure inside,

and the air pressure outside forces liquid in, in an effort to make the pressure inside and

outside the syringe equal again.

Why does it make sense that if you squeeze the air in a sealed syringe that the pressure will go up?

If you squash something in a sealed container then you are reducing the volume available for it to fit into and the result is that it pushes back (the pressure goes up). It is like forcing air into a bicycle tyre with a pump.


How do you make a snail move faster?

there are many different ways to make a snail go faster. one of these ways is to take a syringe, half a cup of coffee and a teaspoon of sugar. put the coffee and the sugar into the syringe and give the snail an injection. there is a scientific explanation that a snail's shell holds it down and makes it go slower. so you could just say, remove the shell. but the problem with that is the shell is the snails home. another way (which is really crazy) is to put a snail on a rocket and blast it out into space. but never do this to a pet snail for it may not come back down to earth alive.

How long do goldenrod plants live?

They are a weed. They will come back each year if not killed. We used to pull them, root intact, and dry them in the sun before they go to seed and spread further. They are not a 'friend' to farmland.


How do the planets stay in orbit and not crash into the sun due to its gravitational pull?

When dealing with the distances and times you are referencing they will eventually go back together. The time is in billions of years.The whole idea of expansion and shrinkage of the universe is in play here.

How can you get instructions to give a pennicillin shot to an urgently ill kitty?

You really need to go to the vet . If you can't and have everything you need[ medication , syringe, know the prescribed dosage ] you pick up the skin on the cats neck [cat may need to be swaddled in a towel and/or a helper] inject it about 1/4 inch below the ear and 1/4 inch towards the spine. You will feel the needle pass thru the skin, then feel the needle enter the more solid muscle. Pull the plunger back on the syringe just slightly. If you see blood, you are in a vein, go in just about a 1/32 inch deeper and repeat with the plunger. If the syringe is clear of blood, inject the penicillin , withdraw the syringe, THEN let loose of the neck skin and massage gently for a few seconds. PLEASE don't do this unless you have the right size syringe and needle and understand all the medication dosage requirements. If you are at all unsure, PLEASE get help.

It feels hard because all of the air particles are getting closer and closer so they are trying to push the plunger up for more room.
