BoyleMariottetörvény

BoyleMariottetörvény describes the inverse relationship between the pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature. This law, also known as Boyle's Law or Mariotte's Law, states that for a fixed amount of gas, as the pressure increases, the volume decreases proportionally, and vice versa. Mathematically, it can be expressed as P1V1 = P2V2, where P represents pressure and V represents volume. This means the product of the initial pressure and volume is equal to the product of the final pressure and volume, assuming the temperature and the number of moles of gas remain constant. The law is a fundamental concept in gas physics and is useful for understanding how gases behave under changing conditions. It has practical applications in various fields, including engineering and meteorology, where the behavior of gases needs to be predicted. Robert Boyle first published his findings in 1662, and independently, Edme Mariotte arrived at a similar conclusion around 1676.
