2. The idea behind this would be to increase the drag acting on the left hand side of the car which would give the car a natural tendency to turn to the left. 3. What you are measuring is the relative pressure of the air in the tire, that is the pressure relative to atmospheric pressure. The pressure you are measuring inside the tire need to have the atmospheric pressure added to it to give you the absolute pressure. 4. The cooling system on most modern vehicles is pressurised above atmospheric pressure. The boiling point of a liquid is directly proportional to pressure; increasing with increased pressure and decreasing with decreased pressure. Hence the increased pressure in the cooling system increases the boiling point of the water. 5. I have to assume that the air 'inside' the Unisphere could be captured at any one instance and measured. I also have to assume that the dimensions given are the inside diameter of the sphere as no dimension is given for the thickness of the material. Additionally I am assuming that the Unisphere is at sea level at a temperature of 20 degrees Centigrade so air density is 1.2kg/m^3. Given these assumptions as fact then the volume enclosed by the sphere is 25,607m^3 so the weight of the air would be 30,728 kg. Good luck getting air on a scale!
