An automobile tire is inflated with air originally at 10.0°C and normal atmospheric pressure. During the process, the air is compressed to 27.0% of its original volume and the temperature is increased to 38.0°C. (a) What is the tire pressure in pascals?   Use the ideal gas law to find the pressure inside the tire from its volume and temperature. Pa (b) After the car is driven at high speed, the tire's air temperature rises to 85.0°C and the tire's interior volume increases by 3.00%. What is the new tire pressure (absolute) in pascals?
