So Joey, you're saying that when someone steps on a balloon and it pops it's really imploding. You're saying it doesn't develop such high pressure inside that the balloon finally bursts from the inside out?...??? I'm not following that line of (il)logic. Please enlighten us with you brilliance (or are you just baffling us with your bull****?). |

As the balloon rises the pressure outside the balloon drops. The skin of the balloon can't contain the higher pressure inside the balloon at a fixed volume (because the skin of the balloon is neither strong enough nor rigid enough) so it stretches...and stretches...and stretches. This stretching lowers the pressure differential between the inside of the balloon and the ouside of the balloon by allowing the the internal volume to increase. This continues until the skin of the balloon ruptures. This is also what happens when you step on a balloon only you reduce the volume for a fixed amount of a gas (the air) by distorting the shape of the balloon until the pressure is so great and the skin has stretched so far that some part of the skin of the balloon ruptures. When you add weight to a car you distort the shape of the tire. This distortion reduced the volume inside the tire. The tire stretches some to help keep the pressure differential reduced but it can't stretch enough to totally compensate so the pressure inside the tire increases. When you have a fixed amount of gas (in this case air) in a container (the tire) and reduce the volume of the container the pressure goes up. This is why the tire pressure goes up as the weight it is supporting increases. You already admitted the shape of the tire distorts. Now all you have to wrap your brain around is the fact that when you distort the shape of the tire you also reduce the volume inside the tire and the pressure increases. I'm not going to go into the calculus supporting this. You're just going to have to research that yourself. |

Linear arithmetic will suffice. Or, in its place, two brain cells firing in unison. |

You are not the 'you' I was referring to. I was initially replying to you, then I was replying to Joey when I finished up. Sorry about that. -Dan |
