In the lungs what do you need to increase the internal pressure?

The internal pressure of the lungs is controlled by the diaphragm and the muscles of the thorax (chest). Inhalation is caused by increasing the volume (which lowers the internal pressure) while decreasing the volume (increases the internal pressure) leads to exhalation, similar to the way a bellows works. The elastic qualities of the lung also help the process of exhalation.


As you go deeper into the earth the temperature and pressure?

increase. This is due to the Earth's internal heat and the weight of the overlying rock layers. The increase in temperature and pressure can have significant effects on the properties of rocks and fluids at depth.


What property change is inflating a tire?

The internal pressure increase in the tire.


Temperature and pressure increase with depth inside Earth - True or False?

True. As you go deeper into the Earth, both temperature and pressure increase due to the weight of the overlying material and the Earth's internal heat.


What happens to temperature and pressure as depth beneath earths surface increase?

As depth beneath the Earth's surface increases, both temperature and pressure increase. This is due to the weight of the overlying rock and the Earth's internal heat. The increase in pressure and temperature with depth is known as the geothermal gradient.


What happen with temperature and pressure as earth's depth increases?

As Earth's depth increases, both temperature and pressure increase. The increase in temperature is primarily due to the Earth's internal heat and geothermal energy. Pressure increases with depth due to the weight of the overlying rock and materials compressing the layers beneath.


What happens to the internal pressure in a fluid flowing in a horizontal pipe when its speed increase?

The internal pressure decreases as can be deducted from the Bernoulli equation P + 0.5 (d) (v)^2 + (d)(g)(h) = constant in a streamlined flow, where d = density. When v increases, P decreases as h = height, is constant.


Would throwing a balloon in the air increase the pressure of gas?

The higher the temperature, the higher the pressure and vice versa. When the temperature rises the gas molecules move faster and hit the balloon more often and with more energy.


What happens to pressure and temperature the closer you move to the core?

As you move closer to the core of the Earth, both pressure and temperature increase. The increase in pressure is due to the weight of the overlying rocks and materials compressing the layers below. The increase in temperature is mainly a result of the Earth's internal heat and radioactive decay of elements.


Under what internal condition does air tend to flow out of the lungs?

Air tends to flow out of the lungs when the internal pressure of the lungs is higher than the atmospheric pressure. This pressure difference is created by the contraction of the diaphragm and intercostal muscles during exhalation, which reduces the volume of the lungs and forces air out.
