Since it is a long drive and you are leaving early in the morning, you make sure to check the tire pressure and make sure it is at the recommended level. At lunchtime, you stop for gas and decide to check your car's tire pressure again. You also notice that the tires seem to be a little bit larger than when you left. The driver's manual suggests a pressure between 205 and 220 kPa. Knowing that the tires heat up while driving; do you expect your reading to be high, low or the same as the recommended tire pressure? Why? Since you plan on staying in Moonbeam a while to see the sights, you think it would be best to adjust your tire pressure. What adjustments should be made to your tires? Should you make these adjustments as soon as you arrive, or the following day?arrow_forward
