Pressure varies inversely with respect to volume and temperature varies directly with respect to volume. At a point, volume is 40 m3, temperature is 20 K, and pressure is 2 atm. If the volume is increased to 400 m3, while the pressure is constant, then what will be the resultant temperature?

If the volume is increased to 400 m3, while the pressure is constant, then what will be the resultant temperature? Correct Answer 200 K
Since V (volume) varies directly with T (temperature) and inversely with P (pressure) .
We can take a constant k such as V = KT/P
Putting V = 40, T = 20 and P = 2 in above equation.
⇒ 40 = K × 20/2
⇒ K = 4
Now putting V = 400 and K = 4 and P = 2 in above equation.
⇒ 400 = 4 × T/2
⇒ T = 200 K
∴ When the volume is increased to 400 m3, then the temperature will be = 200 K
