Why an increase in vapour pressure stop boiling?

An increase in pressure can stop boiling until at an increased temperature the vapor pressure equals the external pressure. That is the definition of boiling, when the vapor pressure equals the external pressure than the liquid will boil.


The Valsalva Maneuver can increase blood pressure to extremely high and dangerous levels?

The Valsalva maneuver can indeed induce strokes in the brain due to higher blood pressure in the head, and perhaps broken capillary blood vessels in the eyeballs and elsewhere. Do the maneuver only just as hard as needed to relieve your symptoms (by increasing heart rate, usually).


How can the Valsalva maneuver be safely incorporated into exercise routines?

The Valsalva maneuver can be safely incorporated into exercise routines by using it during weightlifting or other strenuous activities to help stabilize the core and increase intra-abdominal pressure. It is important to be cautious and not hold the breath for too long to avoid potential risks like a sudden increase in blood pressure.


How will blood pressure respond to the valsalva effect?

The Valsalva maneuver typically leads to a transient increase in blood pressure followed by a decrease. During the maneuver, increased intrathoracic pressure reduces venous return to the heart, initially causing a drop in cardiac output and blood pressure. However, the body's baroreceptor reflex responds to this drop by increasing heart rate and constricting blood vessels, which can temporarily raise blood pressure. After the maneuver is released, blood pressure often rebounds as normal venous return resumes.


What is a quick inward and upward pull into the diaphragm to force an obstruction out of a persons airway?

The maneuver you are referring to is the Heimlich maneuver or abdominal thrusts. It involves using quick inward and upward pressure on a person's diaphragm to help expel an obstruction from their airway, such as food or a foreign object, by creating an increase in air pressure in the lungs.

Does the Inferior vena cava increase in size with valsalva maneuver?

Yes, during the Valsalva maneuver, the pressure within the chest increases, causing compression of the inferior vena cava. This compression may lead to dilation of the vessel to maintain venous return to the heart.


Can a Valsalva maneuver trigger Transient global amnesia?

Yes, a Valsalva maneuver can trigger Transient Global Amnesia (TGA) in some individuals. The increase in pressure caused by the maneuver may disrupt blood flow to the brain, leading to memory loss characteristic of TGA. It is important to observe caution when performing activities that involve straining to prevent such occurrences.


Why do a weather balloon keep increasing in volume as it rises?

As a weather balloon rises in the atmosphere, the external air pressure decreases. This reduction in pressure allows the gas inside the balloon to expand, causing the balloon's volume to increase. Additionally, the temperature can drop at higher altitudes, but the primary driver of volume increase is the decrease in external pressure. Eventually, if the balloon expands too much, it can burst.


Why does pressured water have a raised boiling point?

Boiling is the phenomenon in which saturated vapour pressure becomes equal to the external pressure. Hence as we increase the external pressure then the boiling point has to increase so as to attain that pressure
