What else can I help you with?
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 should tires be filled when they are cold?
Tire maintenance is best done when cold it is the closest to the actual pressure as air warms the pressure rises it may be as much as 10 pounds difference in cars so..... filling a tire warm will result in lower than safe operation pressure when cold.
Which would be heavier and why a flat tire or an inflated tire?
Yes, there is more mass in an inflated balloon than a deflated one. The difference is the gas that was used to inflate the balloon. The gas may not weigh very much, but it does make a difference.
Can a 26 inch bike frame use a 27 inch tire?
MAYBE - , frame size has nothing to do with tire size. Style does, and if its a mountain bike, it will not work with a 27 (road racing) wheel and tire. Brakes will not fit.
Where and how was the the energy stored before it was transferred in pumping up the tire?
I assume you mean TIRE. The energy is usually stored up in whoever PUMPS UP the tire, and then you go lie down, to RE-CHARGE your energy cells!
What is difference between radial tire and nylon tire?
the construction is different, each have pros and cons
What is the difference between a PCR tire and a TBR tire?
PCR: Passenger Car Radial TBR: Truck and Bus Radial A TBR tire can handle a heavier load than a PCR tire, and it's usually bigger.
What is the difference between 23.5-25 and 23.5R25 tires?
23.5-25 is bias ply tire 23.5r25 is radial tire
Average weight of 13 radial tire?
15 lbs is about average for a typical 13" tire.
What is the comfort and handling difference between a 205 tire and a 215 tire?
One size difference would hardly be noticeable to the average driver under normal conditions.
Does a radial tire have radial symmetry?
Yes it does cuz it is equal on both sides.
What are the differences between radial and bias ply tubes?
Bias tires were the standard until the radial tire became the norm. The difference is in how they are constructed. Bias tires were typically constructed of 4 plys that run at angles to each other and the body of the tire and cross each other. Radial tires have the belts at a 90-degree angle to the tire, and the belts overlap rather than cross each other. Radial tires have another belt, usually of steel cord, running around the tire under the tread. Radial construction allows the sidewall of the tire to flex under loads without affecting the contact of the tread with the road unlike a bias tire that flexes very little. It is this flexing that requires you to use a radial tube in a radial tire. The tube is designed to handle the flexing without overheating as a bias tibe would.
Is it safe to use radial tube with non-radial tire?
You can use a radial tube in a bias ply tire BUT you can not use a bias tube in a radial tire. The sidewall flex of a radial tire is greater than that of a bias ply. A bias tube cannot flex as rapidly as a radial tube and so the resulting friction or rubbing create too much heat and the tire/tube combination will blow.
Which type tire is better for an explorer bias or radial?
Radial is better.
What is a Difference between a bias - ply tire and a radial tire?
Radial tires are worlds beyond bias ply tires. In radial tires, the steel chords are placed in a criss-cross pattern. Whereas bias ply tires are placed flat across the face of the tire. Bias ply tires are much, much harder for the engine to turn and are much harder for the suspension to compensate for. Bias ply tires are almost no longer used. That goes for America at least.
Is a tire radial symmetry?
Yes
What is the term for the difference between the pressures inside and outside a tire?
The term for the difference between the pressures inside and outside a tire is called "tire pressure differential."
