Why did my tire go flat overnight but now holds air?
Your tire likely went flat overnight due to a small puncture or leak. It may now hold air because the puncture may have sealed itself temporarily or the tire was re-inflated. It is recommended to have the tire inspected by a professional to ensure it is safe to drive on.
Does a car tire weigh more with air or the same when its flat and tire is on a rim?
The chemical signature for air is H20, or 2 parts Hydrogen and 1 part Oxygen. As each of these elements has mass, even in a gaseous state, the short answer is that air weighs 0.070 lbs oer cubic foot. So at one atmosphere of 14.7 PSI (that is the pressure of the air around us) when the tire is flat, if you knew the volume of the tire, you could compute the weight of the air in the tire. Now, if the tire were inflated to 26 PSI, it would be at 1.77 atmosphere, so the weight of the air in the tire when inflated would more than when it is flat. No, H2O is the chemical signature for WATER. Otherwise the answer would be correct.

How do you change a flat tire on a bicycle?
Video: How do you change a bicycle tire?Changing a flat tireWhen changing a flat tire on your bicycle, the first thing you want to do is disengage your braking system. You can disengage your brakes by squeezing them together and removing the cable from its holder. Next, you will use the quick release to remove the wheel from the bicycle. The quick release is very easy to use. You flip the lever open, unthread it, and your wheel will come right off.Now, you are ready to change your flat. Make sure you have the correct size of tire inner tube for your bike. In addition, you will need tire levers. Tire levers make changing the tire on a bike much easier.Next, you will need to remove the tire from the bicycle. If the tire is not completely flat, you will need to remove all the excess air from the inner tube before taking it off the frame. Release the air by pushing down on the pin inside the tire's air valve. Then squeeze the tire all the way around to make sure all the air is out.Now, you're ready to insert your tire levers. Take one tire lever, and insert the thin end of it between the tire and the rim. Pull the lever down and clip the hook onto the nearest spoke. Then move over two spokes and repeat the process with a second tire lever. Move over two more spokes and repeat the process with a third tire lever. Then, you can take the first lever out, move over two spokes from the third lever and repeat the process. Work around one entire side of the wheel like this until the tire is free from the rim on one side.When one side of the tire is off the frame, pull the other side off with your hands, and then completely remove the tire from the frame. Now, you can remove the old inner tube from the tire by simply pulling it out of the tire with your hand.The most important thing when changing a flat is to check and see what caused the flat. Carefully inspect the tire to see if you can find what was causing the flat. Do this by gently running your fingers along the inside of the tire to look for any sharp objects. Be very careful while you're doing this and pay attention so as not to jab yourself with any sharp object that may be inside the tire. If you find something, remove it from the tire so you don't damage the new inner tube.Now, you are ready to insert the new inner tube into your tire. With a bicycle pump, you want to put a couple pumps of air in the new tube just to give it shape. Then, put the new tube in your tire. Find the hole in the rim for the inflation valve, and pull the valve on the tube through the hole in the rim. Then, pull the tire over the wheel.You will need to work around the wheel with your fingers, pushing one side of the tire into the rim. Once you have one side of the tire on the rim, check to make sure the inner tube is not pinched anywhere in between the tire and the rim. If it is, you will need to gently pull it out.When one side of the tire is done, turn the wheel over, and work around the other side of the tire with your thumbs to push the wheel back onto the rim. It may get more difficult as you go along because the tire will become taut, but just push firmly with your thumbs until the tire is in place.After the tire is on your bicycle, you are ready to re-inflate it with an air pump to its recommended pressure.Then put the tire back on your bike, and reattach the braking tube.
Is it really important to check the air weekly in my Mini's tires and what is a runflat tire?
Runflat TireThe run flat tire is in case you get a flat tire the car is still able to be driven under 50 miles per hour till you can get it changed. After bringing it to the repair shop, make sure they have reset the button which is found on the gear shift. If it's not reset, then the car won't be able to monitor when a flat is actually happening the next time. I have also heard that run flat tires cannot be repaired and that the whole tire has to be replaced, this is what the dealer says, but other repair places say not the case. Checking the AirInsuring you have good air pressure is always a good thing. It makes sure you know the condition of your tires. Proper inflation can improve your gas mileage, (a very good thing!) as well as reduce wear and tear on the engine and suspension. Run flat tires should not be repaired, it is not safe. Runflat tires are not designed to allow you to continue normal driving. If your run flat tire goes flat, you need to go immediately to a shop, you usually have less than fifty miles before the tire is completely unusable. There is something called duraseal technology automatically seals the tire so it can continue to be used, this is only available for truck tires right now, the technology is not availbable for passenger tires, but maybe one day.

Why does flat paper float in air?
It's light and thin and since it's flat the air current catches it and causes it to float. The reason it floats is because it's flat and wide, spreading out, and the air is able to hold it up. Now if you were to crumple it into a ball and drop it it would fall to the ground because there's not enough space and room to hold it. It's to heavy now and there is not enough room for the air current to hold it. That's why on a paper airplane it has flast wings; so that the air current can touch taht and keep it a float.
