An automobile tire is inflated with air originally at 10.0°C and normal atmospheric pressure. During the process, the air is compressed to 29.0% of its original volume and the temperature is increased to 47.0°C.
(a) What is the tire pressure in pascals?
395077.4 Pa
(b) After the car is driven at high speed, the tire's air
temperature rises to 85.0°C and the tire's interior volume
increases by 3.00%. What is the new tire pressure (absolute) in
pascals?
Use the ideal gas law to find the pressure of the air inside the
tire from its volume and temperature. Pa
