LESSON
a. Pressure cooker
A pressure cooker reduces the time in cooking food. It is airtight
sealed that does not allow steam from escaping. As food is being
cooked inside, steam accumulates, thus increasing the number of
frequencies of collision of molecules. Pressure increases as
temperature increases. This causes the shortening of time in cooking.
b. Aerosol can and gas cylinder
When a sealed gas containing high pressured gas is opened, the
gas moves by following the direction of the pressure gradient. This
means that the gas moves from an area of higher pressure to an area
of lower pressure. LPG tanks and other gas tanks work on the same
principle. Gas cylinders usually contain high pressure gases and
thus, they are usually placed in container made up of strong
materials like steel to prevent explosion. Proper storage must be
observed.
c. Scuba Diving
SCUBA means Self -Contained Underwater Breathing Apparatus or
sometimes called aqua lung is used by deep sea divers to breathe
comfortably in an underwater environment. As the diver swims
deeper into the ocean he would normally experience high pressure
making it difficult for the lungs to breathe. The scuba provides added
air to the lungs increasing its pressure that will match the pressure
in the underwater.
d. Hot air balloons
Hot-air balloons are used for recreational purposes. It is a typical
simple type of aircraft that you use to fly from one place to another. It
is filled with hot air. Since air will rise when it is heated, the balloon
with the air inside is lifted, giving up an upward thrust. The balloon is
made up of nylon materials which is heat resistant at the mouth where
the burner is. The liquid propane fuel is sored in cylinders in the wicker
basket. They cannot navigate on their own. They must rely on the wind
to push them direction. Since the wind blows in different directions,
the navigator of the balloon can increase or decrease the amount of
hot air in the balloon, to make it rise and fall.
ACTIVITIES
SITUATIONS ASSUMPTIONS
1.Tires of motor vehicle usually
explode during summer
2.The use of pressure cooker
usually decrease the length in
time during cooking
3.When you heat an empty
balloon eventually the balloon
will expand
4.A balloon with air can still be
inflated.
EXPLANATION
Gases can easily be compressed
to occupy smaller volume.
APPLICATION EXPLANATION
Pressure Cooker
SCUBA
Gas Cylinder like LPG gas
Hot Air balloon
