Calculating Pressure Changes Due to Temperature ChangesSuppose your bicycle tire is fully inflated, with an absolute pressure of 7.00 × 105 Pa (a gauge pressure of just under 90.0 lb/in.2 ) at a temperature of 18.0 °C. What is the pressure after its temperature has risen to 35.0 °C on a hot day? Assume there are no appreciable leaks or changes in volume.
