Water bottle in a hot car in the American Southwest, the temperature in a closed car parked
Question:
Water bottle in a hot car in the American Southwest, the temperature in a closed car parked in sunlight during the summer can be high enough to burn flesh. Suppose a bottle of water at a refrigerator temperature of 5.00oC is opened, then closed, and then left in a closed car with an internal temperature of 75.0oC. Neglecting the thermal expansion of the water and the bottle, find the pressure in the air pocket trapped in the bottle. (The pressure can be enough to push the bottle cap past the threads that are intended to keep the bottle closed.)
