Question

Eva pumps up her bicycle tire until it has a gauge pressure of 413 kilopascals. If the surrounding air is at standard pressure, what is the absolute pressure in the bicycle tire? A. 33.9 kPa B. 49.7 kPa C. 312 kPa D. 514 kPa

Answer 1

the answer is D. 514 kPa

Answer 2

D) The absolute pressure in the bicycle tire = 514 kPa

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gauge pressure (Pgauge)= 413 KPa

Standard pressure = Atmospheric pressure (Patm) = 101.3 kPa

To determine:

The absolute pressure in the bicycle tire (Pabs)

Formula:

Pabs = Pgauge + Patm

Pabs = 413 + 101.3 = 514.3 kPa
