Some real-life applications of Gay-Lussac's Law are:
• Firing a bullet.
When gunpowder burns, it creates a significant amount of superheated gas. The high pressure of the hot gas behind the bullet forces it out of the barrel of the gun.
• Heating a closed aerosol can.
The increased pressure may cause the container to explode. You don't toss an "empty" can of hairspray into afire.
• A burning automobile tire.
The heat from the burning rubber will cause the air pressure in the tire to increase and cause the weakened tire wall to explode.
