33. 32. Why do the manufacturers of automobile tires recommend that tire pressures be measured several times per year?
The pressure of air in the tires changes with seasonal temperature variations.
During the winter months, it is necessary to add air tothe tires to maintain the proper tire pressure.
As the weather warms up, the air pressure in the tire increases and the excess pressure must be released.
All the above are true because the pressure of the gas is directly related to the temperature.
