Temperature

Ears pop The middle ear has a volume of about 6.0 cm3 when at a pressure of 1.0 X 105 N/m2 11.0 atm2. Determine the volume of that same air when the air pressure is 0.83 X 105 N/m2, as it is at an elevation of 1500 m above sea level (assume the air temperature remains constant). If the volume of the middle ear remains constant, some air will have to leave as the elevation increases. That is why ears “pop.”
