Where does the helium that is formed during the hydrogen fusion go?

Helium is a gas that comes from underground in the earth so you would have to dig and then catch it before it rises because helium rises fast


Why does a hot air balloon need a burner to work?

To keep it hot you. The REASON they use a 'Burner' in a Hot Air Balloon is to 'heat the Air, to 'fill' the Balloon, so it will 'rise'... The only other way to get the air Hot enough to fill the Balloon, would be to make the 'Basket' MUCH, MUCH Larger, and fill it with Liberals, and just let them talk. BUT, I don't think the Balloon would ever get off the ground, because, the BULLCRAP would counteract the Hot Air, and they would cancel each other out...


How much helium would it take to lift the space shuttle into space?

It won't - at some time the balloon would burst or become the same density as the atmosphere, so stop rising. The above answer is correct. At about 110,000 feet or ~ 21+ miles (when the shuttle was well into the stratosphere) the balloon will burst. However to get the space shuttle into the stratosphere it would take 2,029,203,000 liters of helium and would cost approximately $ 146,102,616. Assumptions: Space shuttle weighs: 2,029,203 KG 1 Liter of helium can lift ~ 1 gram. Helium costs approximately 7.2 cents per gram. According to the NASA website it costs $450,000,000 to launch a shuttle. Maybe they should look into using helium to get them the first 20 miles.

Can you fill a basketball with helium?

Soccer balls do not contain helium. if they did, they would float like a balloon! Actually, that's not true. A soccer ball would NOT float like a balloon--they weigh too much. It would, however, increase the distance ever so slightly over that of a regular air filled soccer ball. Eventually over time, the helium would dissipate, much like a helium balloon that slowly falls to the ground.

How much weight will a helium balloon carry?

You measure the circumference of the balloon which is 46.75 and one cubic foot of hellium and it lifts about 1 ounce of sugar/anything, So one cubic foot of hellium will lift 1 ounce.


Which gas inflates a balloon the longest carbon dioxide or helium and why?

Carbon dioxide will keep a balloon inflated longer than helium will, because its molecules are much larger and therefore less able to escape through the material of which the balloon is made.On the other hand, helium is much lighter so will give a balloon greater lift while it lasts.

How much does a small helium balloon weigh?

* Calculate the volume of the ballon * Calculate the weight of the helium: G= V x 0,1786 (the helium density in g/L) * Add the weight of the balloon material (rubber, plastic, etc.)

It all depends on the size of the balloon AND on the lifting gas (hydrogen, helium, hot air).
