When an automobile travels for a long di...

When an automobile travels for a long distance , the air pressure in the tyres increases slightly . Why ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Due to the friction between the tyres and the road, the tyres get heated . The temperature of air inside the tyres increases. Consequently, the air pressure in the tyres increases slightly.

    A man starts bicycling in the morning at a temperature around 25^(@)C , he checked the pressure of tire which is equal to be 500 kPa. Afternoon he found that the absolute pressure in the tyre is increased to 520 kPa. By assuming the expansion of tyre is negligible, what is the temperature of tyre at afternoon?
