Hello, astronuc.
I already got the volume of the torus: V = pi^2/4 D d^2 where D is 19 cm and d is 8 cm. V is then 375 cm3.
I am assuming the tire will expand. But the big problem here is finding a math model to incorporate all the variables. These requires knowledge of thermodynamics...
Homework Statement
Hi, I need a big help on how to carry on with this problem:
You witnessed the failure of a nylon rim which exploded injuring the person filling the tire with air. Develop a documented mathematical model that predicts the time required to reach a specific pressure. Your...
