Two important principles of physics: the ideal gas law and Archimedes’ principle are the reasons hot air balloons fly. The mathematical relationship between the volume pressure and the temperature of a gas is called the ideal gas law. When a gas is heated‚ as in a hot air balloon‚ then its volume will increase. However‚ there is a heater located in the balloon’s basket that heats the

The factors that would cause the lung to collapse are elastic recoil and high surface tension. And the factors that prevent the lungs from collapse are negative intrapulmonary pressure and surfactant. During expiration : volume increase and pressure decrease During inspiration : volume decrease and pressure increase The role of surfactant is to decrease surface tension by more than 40 times. And it’s effect on surface tension is to prevent them from PO2 in alveolar : 104 PO2 in venous blood
