At the end of diastole, the left ventricle is filled with blood, resulting in maximum volume known as end-diastolic volume (EDV), typically around 120-130 mL in a healthy adult. The pressure within the left ventricle at this stage is relatively low, usually around 3-12 mmHg, as it prepares to contract and eject blood into the aorta. This low pressure is essential for the efficient filling of the ventricle during diastole.
The related value is called "stroke volume" and is equal to the end-diastolic volume minus the end-systolic volume, i.e. the maximum volume (pre-beat) less the minimum volume (post-beat). The typical volumes for the left ventricle are slightly smaller than those of the right ventricle, but the stroke volume may be slightly greater.
The pulmonary semilunar valve is located in the right ventricle at the opening to the pulmonary artery, which carries deoxygenated blood from the heart to the lungs where it will pick up oxygen. During systole, which is the active part of the heartbeat, the valve is forced open by increased pressure inside the ventricle and blood flows from the heart into the artery. During diastole the pressure inside the heart returns to its lower state, and the pressure inside the artery causes the valve to close again, thus preventing the blood from flowing back into the heart.
The can crushing lab experiment demonstrates the principles of pressure and volume in gases by showing how changes in pressure can affect the volume of a gas. When the can is heated and then quickly cooled, the pressure inside the can decreases rapidly, causing the volume of the gas inside to decrease as well. This demonstrates the inverse relationship between pressure and volume in gases, known as Boyle's Law.
Boyle's Law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume at constant temperature. Therefore, if the volume inside the ball decreases, the gas pressure will increase. Conversely, if the volume increases, the gas pressure will decrease.
A syringe demonstrates the relationship between pressure and volume. When you pull the plunger, the volume inside the syringe increases, causing the pressure to decrease. This is because the air particles inside the syringe become more spread out, resulting in lower pressure.
Assuming the tank was not in a vacuum, the VOLUME stays constant. The volume is the total area inside the tank. The pressure would change when 'pumped up'. The volume would not. The pressure inside would also change based on the temperature, relative to the outside pressure.
This is the effect of the pressure.
According to Boyle's Law, the pressure of a gas in a container is inversely proportional to its volume when temperature is constant. This means that as the volume of the container decreases, the pressure of the gas inside will increase, and vice versa.
If the volume of a container of gas is reduced, the pressure inside the container will increase. This is because reducing the volume decreases the amount of space the gas molecules have to move around, leading to them colliding more frequently with the walls of the container, thus increasing the pressure.
The plunger being pushed into the syringe compresses the air inside, reducing its volume and increasing its pressure. This is due to Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional at constant temperature.
When the bottle is squeezed, the pressure inside the pen cap increases. This increase in pressure causes the air trapped inside the pen cap to compress, resulting in a decrease in volume.
An example of volume and pressure of an object would be a balloon. When you blow air into a balloon, you are increasing its volume which in turn increases the pressure inside the balloon. If you release the air from the balloon, the volume decreases and the pressure decreases as well.
