How much hot air does it take to raise a hot air balloon?
No set answer to that, it depends on how much the balloon has to lift.
What does density have to do with hot air balloons?
The burners on a hot air balloon create hot air, which rises into the balloon and displaces the cooler air from the balloon. Then the hot air, being less dense, will lift the balloon as the cooler surrounding air sinks below it. Once the air cools, the balloon will lose its lift and settle back to the ground. The hot air is only slightly less dense, so it requires a lot of volume to lift the comparatively smaller mass of the balloon and gondola.
How does a balloon hovercraft work does it have lots of forces acting on it and what does friction have to do with it?
It has lift by having hot air, which rises. Gravity, Lift, and Friction act upon the balloon hovercraft. The friction is a fluid friction known as Air Resistance.
How do you increase the size of balloon without blowing further when the mouth of the balloon is tied?
Take a packet of ENO powder. and soda a balloon (heart
How is work done when you lift a book?
the angle in which you lift the book , also known as the movement
How much can a helium balloon lift?
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
What is free lift in pilot balloon?
The free lift of the Pilot Balloon is defined as the difference between the total lift and the weight of the balloon and its load. The free lift is really the net buoyancy of the balloon. Thus free lift is the force tending to drive the balloon (Hydrogen filled) upward, which depends upon the amount of hydrogen gas filled in it. If a hydrogen balloon is inflated until it floats with certain weight attached to it, than it indicates that the attached weight balances the upward force acting on it. This weight is called free lift of the balloon and if weight is removed, the balloon rises up (with fixed rate of ascent corresponding to weight attached while inflating).
What is the standard volume of a weather balloon?
A 567kg weather balloon is designed to lift a 3670 package.......
Can a hot air balloon lift a car?
yes
How will you measure the buoyant force of a balloon?
Measure how much it can lift.
Why is the size of balloon in the hot air balloon important?
Big enough to allow the hot air to create lift.
How much hot air does it take to raise a hot air balloon?
No set answer to that, it depends on how much the balloon has to lift.

Why does a hot balloon fly?
A hot air balloon flies because it is filled with hot air. Hot air rises and causes the balloon to lift from the ground.
Why does the hot air balloon come down?
Once the air cools, the balloon will lose its lift and settle back to the ground.
How does a hot air balloon lift of the ground?
You have to trigger the heat, which goes through the tube and it heats the balloon and it flies in the air.
How does a hot air balloon float with people in it?
Just the density difference between the balloon and surrounding atmosphere is so great that the balloon is able to lift itself and people.
