===== Purpose ===== | ===== Purpose ===== | ||
+ | Can be used to illustrate how the force required to compress a gas varies with pressure. Shows how air can be used as a shock absorber, similar to a pneumatic table. | ||
+ | If not all of the syringes are pressed down at once, shows the action of pneumatic pistons. | ||
