Your tire pressure gauge indicates that the pressure in your cold tires is 250 kPa on a mountain at an elevation of 3500 m. (a) What is the absolute pressure in your tires? (b) After your drive down to sea level, your tires have warmed to 25 C. What does your tire pressure gauge indicate now? assume standard atmospheric conditions
Your tire pressure gauge indicates that the pressure in your cold tires is 250 kPa on...
5. If you put air in your tires in La Paz, Bolivia, and your pressure gauge is reading 25 psig, what is the absolute pressure inside the tire, in psia? (The standard atmospheric pressure in La Paz is about 62 kPa!) Answer: between 30 and 35 psia. 2. A manometer like the one we drew in class has water in the column. The side that is open to standard atmospheric pressure is 20 cm lower than the side open to...
A car tire was inflated to a gauge pressure of 22.0 psi on a cold day when the temperature was -3degree C. What pressure will be found on the tire gauge on a warmer day when the temperature is 31degreeC? Assume an average atmospheric pressure at sea level and that the tire does not leak or expand. [ ]psi What if the tire had expanded by 2.00 %? What would the gauge read on the warmer day? [ ]psi
The recommended pressure in your car's tires is usually specified as a gauge pressure. If a tire has a gauge pressure of 18 lb/in.2, what is the absolute pressure in pascals? Please provide step by step
14. An automobile tire is inflated to a gauge pressure of 207 kPa (30 lb/in.2) at a time when the surrounding pressure is 1 atm (101.3 kPa) and the temperature is 25°C After the car is driven, the temperature of the air in the tire increases to 40°C. Assuming the volume changes only slightly, what will be the new gauge pressure in the tire? d) An oxygen tank with an internal volume of 20 liters is filled with oxygen under...
The gauge pressure in each of the four tires of an automobile is 240 kPa . If each tire has a "footprint" of 150 cm2 (area touching the ground), determine the mass of the car. Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.
Before going on a ski trip to Tahoe, you inflated your car tires to the recommended pressure of 230 kPa (gage pressure, measured at sea level). Right on arrival at the lake of 6,225 ft elevation, you check the gage pressure again and it reads 260 kPa. Assuming the volume of the tire remained constant at 10 L, determine the percent increase in the temperature of the air in the tire.You can assume an averaged atmospheric air density of1.11kg/m3for this...
At sea level, water boils at 100 °C, and the absolute atmospheric pressure is 101 kPa. As the atmospheric pressure above water decreases, the temperature required for boiling also decreases, at a rate of 3.1 kPa per "C. For the system shown below: a. What is the absolute atmospheric pressure at an elevation of 4100 m, assuming a constant unit weight of air of 11.80 N/m3? b. What will be the boiling temperature for water at this elevation? Elev. =...

What is the atmospheric pressure at that elevation in atmospheres? Report your answer to two significant figures. atm
A pressure gauge measures the pressure of your bike tires by connecting to the inside of the tire via a small tube. The reading shows six atmospheres. If you were to replace that tube by another one that has twice the diameter of the original, what pressure would you read?
The gauge pressure in your car tires is 2.80 ✕ 105 N/m2 at a temperature of 35.0°C when you drive it onto a ship in Los Angeles to be sent to Alaska. What is their gauge pressure (in atm) later, when their temperature has dropped to −39.0°C? Assume the tires have not gained or lost any air.
