    the tube. Its height adjusts according to the air pressure on the reservoir. The column of mercury is shorter on a mountaintop as there is less atmosphere to exert a force on the mercury reservoir. On a mountaintop‚ the air pressure is less‚ so the height of mercury it balances in the barometer is shorter than at sea level where there is more air pressure. The pressure of mercury is its weight (force) per unit area. The weight‚ and thus the pressure‚ of the mercury column is directly proportional to

    relationship among the complete pressure and capacity of gas‚ if the temperature is reserved in stable within a closed system. The mathematical expression for Boyles Law is: V=K(1/P) or PV=K (Constant T and n) Where‚ P and V are the pressure and volume of the gas sample respectively. K is a constant and dependent of the temperature (T) and the amount of gas (n‚ moles). The Graph below successfully indicates Boyle’s Law visually: A: Volume Verses Pressure B: Volume Verses 1/P Part

    slop of the pressure/volume(P/v) diagram‚ near the start‚ in the middle and at the end of the compression. 2. To determine the indicated work/cycle of the compressor from the P/v diagram. Where: Work/cycle=(m.e.p) x (piston-area) x stroke And m.e.p= mean effective pressure= average pressure(i.e stroke of the compressor) 3. To determine the volumetric efficiency of the compressor. A pressure transducer is used so that a potential drop will be created for a change in pressure. A similar

    test is performed to determine the magnitude and rate of volumes decrease that laterally confined soil specimen undergoes when subjected to different vertical pressures. From the measured data‚ the consolidation curve can be plotted. This data is useful in determining the compression index‚ the recompression index and the preconsolidation pressure of the soil. In addition‚ the data obtained can also be used to determine the coefficient of consolidation and the coefficient of secondary compression of
