Does air pressure of a tire decrease as the temperature of the tire increases?
No. The pressure increases with temperature increase
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.
Why does the pressure of an tire increase if the automobile is driven for a while?
The air in the tire is becoming heated due to the tires friction on the road surface. Heated air increases the pressure in the tire
Why an over inflated tire bursts at high speeds?
At high speed, there is a lot of flexing of the rubber, which causes heat, which heats the air inside the tire, which increases the air pressure. If the pressure was too high to begin with, the increased air pressure can be high enough to cause the tire to burst.
Why does the the air pressure in a tire change after you drive it?
When a tire runs on the road friction makes it hot, then air pressure increases.
Why does air come out of a bicycle tire when you open the valve even if the valve is pointing up?
Because the air inside the tire is under pressure. Gas always flows from a region of higher pressure to a region of lower pressure. As the pressure inside the tire is greater than the pressure outside, the air always comes out of the bicycle tyre.
Why the pressure of the air inside a car tire increases when the car is driven at high speed?
When you drive the the tires create friction with the road when they rotate. Friction creates heat. The air molecules in the tire heat up and expand. Since the tire is rubber and sealed the tire expands with the pressure of the hot air.
Why does air leave the tire when the tire valve is opened?
Air leaves a tire when the tire valve is open due to the pressure. The pressure outside of the tire is lower than the pressure inside the tire.
The air pressure inside a tire?
scalar
What creates pressure in a bicycle tire?
The pressure increases, and the molecules collide with the tire's inner surface.
How does air pressure act on car tier?
air pressure helps on the inside of a tire but on the outside it does not usually help. as an observation if you get a flat tire and put air inside the tire it gives pressure on the inside were the hole is but if it is on the outside and lets say a pipe rolls down the highway and it hits your tire air pressure helps it make a hole in it or make it flat.
What happens when you pump up a bicycle tire?
Air goes in it the pressure increases and the tire becomes harder. If you keep pumping it'll eventually blow up.
