When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressurePand volumeV
are related by the equationPV^1.4=C whereCis a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is600cubic centimeters and the pressure is81 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of11 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this instant?
________________________cm^3/min
(Pa stands for Pascal -- it is equivalent to one Newton/(meter squared); kPa is a kiloPascal or 1000 Pascals. )
