Question

The total air pressure in a tire ( gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure) is measured to be 37.7 Ibs/im^2 on a warm summer day when the outside temperature is 23 degree C. what would be the new tire pressure when the temperature drops to freezing ( 0 degree C) ? Assume the volume inside the tire stays constant.


A.      34.8 lbs/in^2

B.      22.7 lbs/in^2

C.      40.6 lbs/in^2

D.      14.7 lbs/in^2


The cooling process describes


A.      Is Isothermal

B.      Does not accomplish any work because the volume is constant

C.      Is Adiabatic

D.      Is Isobaric

Explanation / Answer

The total air pressure in a tire ( gauge pressure + atmospheric pressure) is measured to be 37.7 Ibs/im^2 on a warm summer day when the outside temperature is 23 degree C. what would be the new tire pressure when the temperature drops to freezing ( 0 degree C) ? Assume the volume inside the tire stays constant.


A. 34.8 lbs/in^2------(apply P1/T1 = P2/T2---> T2 = 37.7*273/300 = 34.3 lb/in^2)

B. 22.7 lbs/in^2

C. 40.6 lbs/in^2

D. 14.7 lbs/in^2


The cooling process describes


A. Is Isothermal

B. Does not accomplish any work because the volume is constant

C. Is Adiabatic

D. Is Isobaric
