The pressure in a bicycle tire is 105 psi at 25˚C in Fresno. You take the bicycle up to Huntington, where the temperature is – 5˚C. What is the pressure in the tire?

Respuesta :

Answer:

94.4 Psi

Explanation:

Given that;

P1 = 105 psi

T1 = 25˚C + 273 =  298 K

P2 = ?

T2 = – 5˚C + 273 = 268 K

P1/T1 = P2/T2

P1 T2 = P2T1

P2 = P1T2/T1

P2 = 105 * 268/298

P2= 94.4 Psi
