How are the speeds of molecules of air affected when the air is compressed by the action of a tire pump?

When air is pumped into a tire at great speed, there is an increase in the temperature of the air. This is because the fast compressions cause the air molecules to move, whereas they remain still during a slow compression.

Do the molecules in a liquid all have about the same speed or is there a wide varity of speeds?
there is a wide variety of speeds
How does the speed of molecules of gas change when heated?
The speed of the molecules speeds up when the gas is heated.
Does evaporation speed up or slow down molecules?
Evaporation speeds molecules up, thusly meaning they will "spread out" and convert from a liquid to a gas.
How does lifting by heat cause air to rise?
Heat speeds up molecules, this causes the particles to rise
Do different shaped objects fall at different speeds with the same weight?
yes, they fall at different speeds because of friction due to air molecules. In a vacuum they would fall at the same speed.
Are cars affected by aerodynamics at low speeds?
It would depend on what you call low speeds.

How does the speed of molecules of gas change when heated?
The speed of the molecules speeds up when the gas is heated.
What is the movement of atoms in a liquid during a temperature changes both increases and decreases?
As temperature increases, the atoms will move around more energetically - moving on average faster. Translational speeds increase, rotational speeds of the molecules increase, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules increase As temperature decreases, the atoms move around less energetically - moving on average slower. Translational speeds decrease, rotational speeds of the molecules decrease, and the magnitude of vibrations of the atoms about their bonds in molecules decrease
do bromine molecules move faster then air molecules?
The speed of gas molecules is primarily determined by their temperature, not their specific identity. At the same temperature, bromine molecules and air molecules would have similar average speeds.
What molecules speeds up chemical reactions by lowering activation?
Enzymes are the molecules that speed up chemical reactions, and these are forms of catalysts.
Does evaporation speed up or slow down molecules?
Evaporation speeds molecules up, thusly meaning they will "spread out" and convert from a liquid to a gas.
The molecules in a room-temperature glass of water jostle around at?
a great variety of speeds.
When things are heated up where do the molecules move?
They don't necessarily move to another place. However, the movement of the molecules INSIDE the object speeds up. (:
What do molecules do in a solid liquid and gas?
Solid. The molecules are compacted together and vibrate at high speeds. Liquid. The molecules are still close together but are not fixed and can roll around each other. they spread to take the shape of the container. the molecules move at even higher speeds than solid. Gas. The molecules are far away from each other and move even faster than water Molecules. the spread out or shrink inward to meet the shape of the container.
How does wind affect the evaporation of water?
it speeds it, as the extra speed of the air molecules tends to knock more water molecules off the surface of the body of water
Which type of control agent never speeds an enzyme's action?
Substrate analog
