When air is pumped into a cycle tyre the volume and pressure of the air in the tyre both are increased. What about Boyle's law in this case?

Air (gamma = 1.4 ) is pumped at 2atm pressure in a motor tyre at 20^@C . If the tyre suddenly bursts, what would be the temperature of the air coming out of the tyre. Neglect any mixing with the atmospheric air.

When a tyre bursts, the air coming out is cooler than the surrounding air. Explain.

We often have the experience of pumping air into bicycle tyre using hand pump. Consider the air inside the pump as a thermodynamic system having volume V at atmospheric pressure and room temperature, 27^(@)C . Assume that the nozzle of the tyre is blocked and you push the pump to a volume 1//4 of V. Calculate the final temperature of air in the pump? (For air, since the nozzle is blocked air will not flow into tyre and it can be treated as an adiabatic compression). Take gamma for air = 1.4

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

Air is pumped into an automobile tyre's tube up to pressure pf 200kPa in the morning when the air temperature is 20^(@)C. During the day the temperature rises to 40^(@)C and the tube expand by 2%. Calculate the pressure of the air in the tube at this temperature.
