This
a sign of decrease in pressure, the pressure of the air molecules inside the
tire has reduce due to the decrease in the temperature. This is to satisfy the pressure law which
states that pressure of a fixed mass of a gas at a constant volume is
proportional to the absolute temperature .
what do you think you know about physics, physics is the study of matter under the effect of energy, but does this includes solid states bodies, atoms at ground states, object at microscopic size or object moving faster than light? these and more is what prompt me to ask again what is physics?

explain what happens when a helium-filled balloon is released and rises into the atmosphere
It
may burst or increase in size depending on the amount of pressure available, at
higher elevation, the pressure is low , therefore the volume must rise to
satisfy the boyle’s law.
How does kinetic energy of particles vary with temperature.
Temperature
is proportional to the kinetic energy , the higher the temperature the higher
the kinetic energy and the lower the temperature the lower the kinetic energy.
In fact temperature is the measure of the average kinetic energy of gases
Explain why a balloon expands when taken to a higher elevation if the temperature remains constant.
When
a balloon is taken to higher elevation, the volume will increase, at higher
elevation , the pressure is lower, the volume which now the filled balloon will
increase in size. This because according to boyle’s law the pressure of a fixed
mass of a gas, at constant temperature is inversely proportional to the volume.
What assumption of the kinetic molecular theory explains why a gas can expand to fill a container
· The
volume of a gas is negligible compared to the volume of their container.
· Gases
moves in all direction colliding with one another and with the hall of the
container
What assumption of the kinetic molecular theory explains why a gas can expand to fill a container
Gases
do not have fixed shape and volume their volume is the volume of their
container.
