Question
At the end of a warm autumn day, you measure the air pressure in your car's tires and write down their pressure as 2.41 × 105 Pa (about 35 psi) when the outside temperature is 23°C. It cools down quite a bit overnight to -5°C. If you were to measure the air pressure in the tire on that cool morning, what pressure would you measure? Assume that you can ignore the change in the volume of the tire and that no air is released from the tire overnight.
