Question 1186723: When tested in a cool garage at 12°C a motor tyre is found to have a pressure of 190 kPa. Assuming the volume of air inside remains constant, what would you expect the pressure to become after the tyre has been allowed to stand in the sun so that the temperature rises to 32°C? Atmospheric pressure =190 kPa.

.

After standing outdoor, the air temperature inside the tyre will rise from 12°C to 32°C;
the volume of the air in the tyre remains (practically) the same,
and the air pressure inside the tire will rise correspondingly.
