If you fill your car tire to a pressure of 32 psi (pounds per square inch) on a hot summer day when the temperature is 35°C (95°

F), what is the pressure (in psi) on a cold winter day when the temperature is -15°C (5°F)? Assume no gas leaks out between measurements and the volume of the tire does not change.

By Gay Lussacs law you can find the pressure. First both temperatures of Celsius must change to Kelvin by adding 273. Temperature one will be 308K and temperature 2 will be 258K
With this info, you can now find the pressure with Lussacs law

P1 = P2
— —
T1 T2

Pressure 1 is given which is 32 psi so just plug it all in and find P2

32 = x
—— ——
308 258

308x = 8256 (Cross multiply)

X = 26.8 (divide both sides by 308)

Answer is 26.8 PSI

This makes sense because as temperature increases pressure increases, as well as when temperature decreases, pressure decreases. Since it’s a colder day the pressure will be lower.

Answer:

6⅔ shifts

Explanation:

From the question given:

A shift = 4 hours

Pay = $8.25 per hour

Next, we shall determine the number of hours that will result in a pay of $220. This can be obtained as follow:

$8.25 = 1 hour

Therefore,

$220 = $220 × 1 hour / $8.25

$220 = 220/8.25 hours.

$220 = 80/3 hours

$220 = 26⅔ hours

Therefore, it will take 26⅔ hours to receive a pay of $220.

Finally, we shall determine the number of shifts in 26⅔ hours. This can be obtained as follow:

4 hours = 1 shift

Therefore,

26⅔ hours = 26⅔ ÷ 4

26⅔ hours = 80/3 × 1/4

26⅔ hours = 80/12

26⅔ hours = 20/3

26⅔ hours = 6⅔ shifts

Therefore, she will work 6⅔ shifts in order to receive a pay of $220
