Laplace's Law formula is? P=(4ST)/r
P in Laplace's Law means what? Pressure
ST in LaPLACE'S Law means what? Surface Tension
r in LaPLACE'S Law means what? Radius
What is the relationship between Radius of a Sphere and Surface Tension? As the radius of the sphere increases the pressure decreases

How does chest wall tissue contribute to resistance of breathing? Impedance to motion caused by the thorax & abdomen and also affords approximately 20% of breathing resistance in healthy adults
How does airway resistance contribute to resistance of breathing? Impedance to movement of gas through the airways and also affords approximately 80% of breathing resistance in healthy adults.
