Experiment to Verify the Boyle/Mariotte
Law
| 4. |
The diagram below shows a piece of apparatus
which is rather simpler to use and also has the advantage that
it does not use mercury, which is poisonous. |
|
 |
| |
The tap has three positions. |

|
 |
|
Meter "blocked",
Syringe open to the atmosphere. |
|
......
 |
|
Syringe connected to
meter. |
|
...........
 |
|
Syringe "blocked".
Meter open to the atmosphere. |

It is hoped that the method of using this
apparatus is obvious.
As with the other apparatus, to verify the law, a graph will
be plotted. Before starting the experiment, decide what
quantities will be plotted on the graph. |
