Best Answer

I am assuming you mean how much force is required to break the water balloon on impact. Cannot be answered - it would depend on too many factors, such as how much water is in the balloon (more water would cause it to pop more easily, less water and you could be slamming that thing against a brick wall and it won't break). It would also depend on the materials used to make the balloon, and how hard you throw it, as to whether it would break on impact.

What happens of you put plaster on a water balloon?

If you put plaster over a water balloon and freeze it, the water balloon will bulge out.


How far can a water balloon rolls before it bursts?

This has to do, not so much with the distance, and not even with the speed, but how suddenly the balloon's speed changes - in other words, how strong you hit it. Of course, tossing the balloon farther may require more force - but then, in theory you can make it speed up gradually. - It will also depend on the specific balloon (its material, and how thick it is), and how much you fill it with water.


Why does balloon filled with water do not blast when it is shown to fire?

Why does the balloon with no water break in the flame? And balloon with water not break? The flame heats the rubber of both balloons. The rubber of the balloon without water becomes so hot, that it becomes too weak to resist the pressure of the air inside the balloon. When water inside the balloon is placed in the flame, the water absorbs most of the heat from the flame. Then, the rubber of the balloon does not become very hot. Because the rubber does not become hot, it does not weaken, and the balloon does not break. Water is a good absorber of heat


Why doesnt waterfilled balloon burst when heated?

You can have the candle flame actually touch the balloon, and the balloon won't break! The water in the balloon is absorbing the heat from the candle. The balloon conducts heat very well, so the candle flame transfers to the water without harming the balloon.

Will balloons pop if you sit on them?

It depends on how heavy the person itself is. And the balloon. If the balloon is strong and a light person is sitting on it, it probably won't. If a heavy person is sitting on it, it might. And if it is a non strong balloon, and ANYBODY sits on it... it will.

How do you make the perfect water balloon?

to make the perfect water balloon, simply use a regular water balloon rather than a water balloon. regular water balloons can get as big as a human head. the down side is they don't pop easily. you can drop them on the floor and they wont pop.

Why wont balloons pop when over fire when there is water in it?

Inside the balloon with no water at all, the intense heat from the hot fire will melt the surface of the balloon. The pressure inside the balloon is so big that the balloon deflate and POP! With water, the water conducts the fire away from the balloon so the suface may not reach high tempertures. The balloon is remained inflated.
