Charles" law states that for a given mass of gas the pressure remaining constant the volume is proportional to the absolute temperature and at constant volume the pressure is proportional to the absolute temperature.it is very important for deriving PV=RT.it paved the way for the absolute temperature scale

Charles law says that pressure and volume are inversely proportional. So if you are given an initial pressure and volume and need to find a final pressure (or volume) and are given a final volume just use P1V1=P2V2. Most people just use the combined gas law PV/T=PV/T

Ideal Gas Law: PV = nRT
Charles' Law -
At constant pressure, V/T is a constant.
Hence V1/T1 = V2/T2 where 1 and 2 are at different instances.
Boyle's Law -
At constant temperature, PV is a constant.
Hence P1V1 = P2V2.
Pressure Law -
At constant volume, P/T is a constant.
Hence P1/T1 = P2/T2

hot air balloons -- gas expands as it is heated but since the mass is the same, it is less dense and floats.
combustion engine - air/fuel mixture is first compressed(boyles law) and then ignited. The sudden rise in temperature expands the gas and as the cylinder is movable, the volume expands driving the piston downward rotating the crankshaft.

i was hoping you gave an example of it in the rest of your Q,
i had 3 semesters of college physics, and 20 years of field experience, but which one of those laws i know is charles law?

dont forget, boyles law and charles' law both refer to "ideal" gasses, as for a practical application of said law, other than baffling the hell outta physics students i have'nt really found one yet, although it may come in handy if ya scuba diving..........
