A truck's tires have the correct air pressure at room temperature about 20c explain why a tire is more likey to explode when the truck is driven in hot weather than in cold weather?

As a tire goes round and round heat builds up inside the heat expands the air inside the tire. On a normal day that he can dissipate but as the temperature on the outside increases is more difficult for the heat (energy) to leave the inside of the tire. As the temperature increases the pressure inside the tire also increases. It is that pressure that can cause the tire to explode.
