The tyre of a bicycle has a volume of $2 \times 10^{-3} \ m^3$. Initially,the tube is filled to $75 \%$ of its volume with air at an atmospheric pressure of $10^5 \ N \ m^{-2}$. When a rider is on the bicycle,the area of contact of the tyre with the road is $24 \times 10^{-4} \ m^2$. The mass of the rider with the bicycle is $120 \ kg$. If a pump delivers a volume of $500 \ cm^3$ of air in each stroke,then the number of strokes required to inflate the tyre is $(g = 10 \ m \ s^{-2})$.
