The pressure of air in a tire is \(22.5Nm^{-2}\) at 27°C. If the air in the tyre heats up to 47°C, calculate the new pressure of the air, assuming that no air leaks out and that the change in volume of the air can be neglected.

A. \(21.10Nm^{-2}\)
B. \(24Nm^{-2}\)  
C. \(39.07Nm^{-2}\)
D. \(45Nm^{-2}\)
E. \(97.25Nm^{-2}\)
