How are the gas laws applied to SCUBA?
Boyle’s law says that the farther down you go in scuba diving, you need to put in less air in order to get the same buoyant effects. However, as you go up, you need to take air out of your suit. Gay-Lussac’s law says that your blood can become saturated with inert gases, causing the Bends. Other laws say that you can burst a lung by holding your breath as you go up.
