Which of the following gas laws is equivalent to the work done?
A. Boyle' law B. Charles law C. Pressure law D. van der Waal's law
Correct Answer: A
Explanation
Mathematically Boyle's law = PV = K Where P = Pressure and V = Volume By definition Pressure = \( \frac{F}{A} = \frac{F}{M \times M} \) Again Workdone = force x displacement therefore \( PV = \frac{F}{A} \times V = \frac{F}{M^2} \times \frac{M^3}{1} \\ PV = \frac{F}{x\times x} \times \frac{x \times x \times x}{1} = F \times x \) = force x displacement
