Solve the common pressure and temperature assuming no heat loss in the containers and the surrounding of the two containers A and B that hold an ideal gas at pressure PA and PB, and absolute temperature TA and TB respectively. The containers are connected by a thin tube (and a close valve). The valve is opened to allow the pressures and temperatures to equalize.
A diver 60 mm deep in 10∘C∘C fresh water exhales a 1.5 cmcm diameter bubble.
What is the bubble's diameter just as it reaches the surface of the lake, where the water temperature is 20∘C∘C? Assume that the air bubble is always in thermal equilibrium with the surrounding water.
Express your answer in centimeters.
Write down the relation connecting the pressure and temperature of a gas if the volume is kept constant.
