When inflating a completely flat tire, at first the pressure inside the tire remains constant as air is added. Then, after it can no longer expand, adding more air causes its pressure to increase.
Explain why the air pressure remains constant as air is added and the volume increases.
The volume within the tyre is fairly constant. It will increase very slightly, especially from totally flat, but it is mechanically constrained.
The volume of air you are putting into the tyre however, is increasing. In order to resolve these two constraints, the pressure MUST increase - you are forcing the increasing volume of air you are putting into a constant space. That is the same as reducing its volume.
Boyle’s Law assumes that the amount of gas in a system is a constant, in which case pressure and volume do vary inversely.
When inflating a tire, you are adding gas to the system, and the size of the container is increasing. Boyle’s Law doesn’t apply.

Pumping air into a tire increases the pressure inside because ... ... the volume of air inside the tire is increased, hence air molecules have a greater surface area of tire that they hit, increasing the force on the inside wall of the tire. more air molecules collide with the inside wall of the tire during any given time interval. ... the higher air density in the tire increases the temperature, which is proportional to pressure in this scenario.
The air pressure inside the tube of a car tire is 320 kPa at a temperature of 12.0 °C. What is the pressure of the air, if the temperature of the tire increases to 60.5 °C? Assume that the volume of the tube doesn't change. What is the air pressure inside the tube, if the volume of the tube is not constant, but it increases from 23.7 l to 24.4 l during the warming process described above?
Suppose you have filled a 35.0 L car tire with air at a pressure of 40.0 lb / in2. If you attach a balloon to the tire and let the air out of the tire into the balloon until the pressure is 14.7 lb / in2, what is the final volume to which the balloon will expand, assuming that the temperature is constant and that the volume of the tire remains constant. (Hint: first calculate the final volume of the...
An automobile tire is filled to a gauge pressure of 185 kPa when
its temperature is 20°C. (Gauge pressure is the difference between
the actual pressure and atmospheric pressure.) After the car has
been driven at high speeds, the tire temperature increases to
57°C.
Please help with both parts of this problem. Thanks!

Select all that apply.
Why does the pressure of a gas sample increase when the temperature is increased? Assume the volume remains constant. Select all that apply. Choose one or more: O A. The average kinetic energy of the gas increases as the temperature increases, causing more energetic collisions with the walls. O B. As the temperature of the gas increases,...

24. Suppose that an ideal gas is inside a container with a movable piston. Which of the following statements is true? 1) Increasing the temperature of the system while keeping the volume constant causes the gas to perform work. 2) When work is done by the system on the surroundings while temperature is kept constant, the pressure of the gas increases. 3) If temperature is kept constant, then decreasing the pressure of the gas causes a increase in volume 4)...
