6 When the gas in a balloon is kept at a constant temperature, the pressure \(P\) in atmospheres and the volume \(V \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }\) are related by the equation $$P = \frac { k } { V } ,$$ where \(k\) is a constant. [This is known as Boyle's Law.]
When the volume is \(100 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }\), the pressure is 5 atmospheres, and the volume is increasing at a rate of \(10 \mathrm {~m} ^ { 3 }\) per second.

1. Show that \(k = 500\).
2. Find \(\frac { \mathrm { d } P } { \mathrm {~d} V }\) in terms of \(V\).
3. Find the rate at which the pressure is decreasing when \(V = 100\).
