I know that in a closed container, pressure increases as temperature increases, but I am having trouble trying to explain it mathematically. I did some searching around and came up with this formula: PV = nRT. I am having some trouble trying to apply this to my scenario; closed volume -...

Don't think this is correct, but this is what I have come up with. formula for rotational inertia for a disk: I = 1/2 M * R^2, where M = mass, and R = radius? 14" wheel: I = 1/2 * 17lbs * 7"^2 I = 416.5 in^2 lbs (not sure what the units are) 195-60-R14 tire: I = 1/2 * 21 *...

I need to compare a wheel and tire package on my car and I need help calculating for rotational inertia. I am comparing the weights and size of two different wheels and tires, and so far, this is what I have gathered: 14" wheel & tire (tire is a 195-60-R146): Overal Diameter - 23.2126"...
