I'm doing an investigation, for my GCSE coursework, on how the combined gas law can be applied to formula one racing. For example: the tyres.

Can anyone give me any ideas on what to put into my investigation.

Thanks in advance.

Estimate how hot the tires get during a race, if you also estimate their volume you can work out what pressure they reach. And what pressurethey wouldhave to be inflated to while cold to reach a certain running pressure.
