A motorist inflates the tires of her car to a pressure of 180 kPa on a day when the temperature is -8.0° C. When she arrives at

her destination, the tire pressure has increased to 245 kPa. What is the temperature of the tires if we assume that the tires do not expand?

Apply Gay-Lussac's law:

P/T = const.

P = pressure, T = temperature, the quotient of P/T must stay constant.

Initial P and T values:

P = 180kPa, T = -8.0°C = 265.15K

Final P and T values:

P = 245kPa, T = ?

Set the initial and final P/T values equal to each other and solve for the final T:

180/265.15 = 245/T

T = 361K

Real-world examples of power
Paha777 [63]
By definition, power is the amount of energy consumed (or produced) in a second. (or more precisely, it is the rate of change in energy).
so anything which uses energy in a known time period can be labeled with a power rating.

an example for power could be a nuclear plant; traditional nuclear plants produce somewhat close to 1 giga watts (which means 1 giga joules in a second)
