Question
An automobile tire having a temperature of 3.4 ◦C (a cold tire on a cold day) is filled to a gauge pressure of 24 lb/in2 . What would be the gauge pressure in the tire when its temperature rises to 26◦C? For simplicity, assume that the volume of the tire remains constant, that the air does not leak out and that the atmospheric pressure remains constant at 14.7 lb/in2 . Answer in units of lb/in2 .

Answer:
27.16 lb/in²
Explanation:
initial temperature, T1 = 3.4 °C = 276.4 K
initial gauge pressure, P1 = 24 lb/in²
atmospheric pressure, Po = 14.7 lb/in²
initial absolute pressure, P1′ = Po + P1 = 14.7 + 24 = 38.7 lb/in²
final temperature, T2 = 26 °C = 299 K
Let the final gauge pressure is P2.
use the ideal gas equation and the volume is constant.
P2′ = 41.86 lb/in²
Now the gauge pressure, P2 = P2′ – Po = 41.86 – 14.7 = 27.16 lb/in²
Thus, the new gauge pressure is 27.16 lb/in².
Answer:
Explanation:
We are given that
Gauge pressure at 3.4 degree Celsius,P=
We have to find the gauge pressure in tire when the temperature rises to 26 degree Celsius.
Atmospheric pressure=
K=273+Degree Celsius
Gauge pressure in tire when the temperature rises to 26 degree Celsius.=
