A scuba diver fills her lungs to capacity (6.0 L) when 10.0 m below the surface of the water and begins to ascend to the surface. Assume the density of the water in which she is swimming is 1000 kg/m3 and use g = 10 m/s2A. Assuming the temperature of the air in her lungs is constant, to what volume must her lungs expand when she reaches the surface of the water?B. What effect would the warming of the air in her lungs have on the volume needed when she surfaces?C. Assuming the temperature of the air in her lungs is constant, what effect does her ascent have on the vrms of the air molecules in her lungs?

Explanation:

As temperature is constant , we shall apply Boyle's law

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = pressure at depth of 10 m

= P + hdg , h = 10 , d = 10³ , g = 10

P is atmospheric pressure which is 10⁵ Pa

P₁ = 10⁵ + 10 x 10³ x 10

= 2 x 10⁵

applying the formula

2 x 10⁵ x 6 = 10⁵ x v

v = 2 x 6 = 12 L

volume will be doubled at the surface .

B )

warming of air at the surface will increase the volume of air in her lungs so so she will need more lung capacity .

C )

The rms value of a gas depends upon the temperature of the gas . As temperature of the gas is constant , the rms value of the gas particles will remain constant when she goes to the surface .

to be honest as much as i would love to answer this. i feel as if something's missing. just saying.
