The Volume of air in a car tire is 800cm^3 and the pressure is 290kPa.

Determine the volume the air would occupy as soon as the tire bursts on a day when the atmospheric pressure is 102kPa.

(Assume that the temperature remains constant and assume an ideal gas)

1 answer

The pressure goes from 290 to 102 kPa.

V=800cm^3*290/102
