What does Boyle’s law state?
Pressure and volume are inversely related (P = k/V)
2
New cards
What happens to pressure when volume increases?
Pressure decreases.
3
New cards
What happens to pressure when volume decreases?
Pressure increases.
4
New cards
How does air flow in relation to pressure?
Air flows from higher pressure to lower pressure.
5
New cards
What is resistance in the respiratory system?
A force that slows airflow.
6
New cards
What is the main factor affecting airway resistance?
Airway diameter
7
New cards
How does smaller airway diameter affect resistance?
It increases resistance due to more collisions with airway walls.
8
New cards
What is the relationship between airflow, pressure, and resistance?
F = ΔP / R
