 When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure

P and volume V are related by the equation PV - C

When air expands adiabatically (without gaining or losing heat), its pressure P and volume V are related by the equation PV - C where C is a constant. Suppose that at a certain instant the volume is 350 cubic centimeters and the pressure is 85 kPa and is decreasing at a rate of 14 kPa/minute. At what rate in cubic centimeters per minute is the volume increasing at this instant? cm3 min Pa stands for Pascal -- it is equivalent to one Newton/ (meter squared); kPa is a kiloPascal or 1000 Pascals.
