Question 1 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR

What is a logical way that you could begin to investigate why your tire had low air pressure?

Answer
A
Look to see if there is a hole in the tire.
B
Feel the tire for air escaping from it.
C
Place the bike in a warm location to see if the tire pressure increases.
D
Apply an outside pressure to the tire and listen for air escaping from the tire.

Explanation

Start by checking for a visible hole and feeling around the tire for escaping air; either can reveal a leak. Applying pressure to the tire may make escaping air easier to hear. Warming the bike could raise the air pressure temporarily, but it would not help identify why the tire lost pressure.
