Question 2Gas Turbine - 1st Asst/Chief

The correct answer is A) The volume of an enclosed gas varies inversely with the applied pressure, provided the temperature remains constant. This is the correct definition of Boyle's law, which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to the absolute pressure of the gas, as long as the temperature remains constant. This means that as pressure increases, the volume of the gas decreases, and vice versa. The other options are incorrect because they do not accurately define Boyle's law. Option B describes Charles' law, which relates gas volume to temperature. Option C describes Newton's first law of motion, which is unrelated to Boyle's law.
