A bicyclist uses a tire pump whose cylinder is initially full of air at an absolute pressure of 1.01×10^5 Pa. The length of stroke of the pump (the length of the cylinder) is 36.0 cm.
.At what part of the stroke (i.e., what length of the air column) does air begin to enter a tire in which the gauge pressure is 2.76×10^5 Pa? Assume that the temperature remains constant during the compression.
