How the hot air balloon can rise up into the air even through it doesm't have a motor?

A rubber ball rises up in the water because it is full of a substance (rubber) that is lighter than
the same volume of water.
A hot air balloon rises up into the cool air because it is full of a substance (hot air) that is lighter than
the same volume of cool air.
The hot air balloon floats in cool air, just like the rubber ball floats in water.

What happens when you rub a balloon with wool and the other with silk?
the balloon will most likely pop even though i have never done it.
Why does a hot air balloon float even though it is so heavy?
Relatively hot air balloon are pretty light, and they have a very large balloon which is filled with hot air, which naturally rises, and if you contain enough of it it is enough to lift the balloon.
Can a lead balloon float?
No... it wouldn't even survive the conditions of the upper atmosphere, unless it was a very tough balloon.. even if it could I'm assuming eventually the atmosphere would reduce to a point where it was as dense as helium or hydrogen (the gas I'm assuming would make your balloon float) and your balloon would stop anyway at a maximum altitude. Either way.. after that, the balloon would have to break away from Earth's gravity (not easy) and then somehow cover 382500km or so to get to the Moon itself..
What is the difference between a full and an empty balloon?
A full balloon contains more gas than an empty balloon (even an empty balloon contains a little air). Therefore a full balloon is heavier than an empty balloon (assuming the balloons are the same weight to begin with). However, if filled with a lighter-than-air gas, such as helium, the full balloon will defy gravity due to its increased buoyancy. The only other difference is that the skin of a full balloon will be stretched and will therefore be much thinner than the skin of an empty balloon. This stretching increases the pressure upon the gas contained therein, therefore the gas is compressed inside the balloon.
How does a hot air balloon float even though it is so heavy?
Well the basic answer is that when the balloon is 'floating' it is not heavy. The hot air inside the balloon is less dense and therefore lighter than the ambient air. The hotter it is, the lighter it is. When the weight loss of the air inside the balloon is equivalent to the weight of the balloon and equipment, passengers, etc., then it will float. The weight reduction of heated air is quite small which is why balloons have to be so big.
Is motor oil a heterogeneous mixture or homogeneous?
The motor oil is a homogeneous mixture even though it is not colorless. I can see an object through a thin layer of oil.
Where can you purchase motor home insurance?
Motor home insurance can be bought through most motor vehicle insurance companies, or even bigger insurance companies that deal with a more general spectrum such as Farmers insurance.
How loud does music have to be pop a balloon?
it's not how loud the music has to be to pop a balloon. to pop a balloon with music you would have to find the right frequency to pop it, if it was even possible
What happens when you rub a balloon with wool and the other with silk?

What is balloon morphing?
Balloon Morphing is when your balloon has ran out of air,and not even knowing it,so you figure it out in like a project.Do some research because I need some research on this project.
Where can I go on a hot air balloon ride in Canada?
It depends on where in Canada you are located but here are some sites for hot air balloon rides. www.sundanceballoons.com, www.blastvalve.com, and even www.hotairballooning.com/balloon-rides/balloon-rides-17.php.

Balloon size decreasing time to time?
Balloon rubber is very thin and not completely "airtight" so gasses will leak from the balloon. This is even more apparent if the gas in the balloon is Helium or some other gas with smaller molecules than those of air.
What happens as the temperature of a gas in a balloon increase?
The balloon expands or even pops. Because when a gas gains heat energy the particles in it move faster and further apart creating a greater force on the inside of the balloon until the balloon cannot contain that force.
What is the weight of water displaced by a massless balloon?
No real object is massless. Even a balloon has the mass of the balloon plus the mass of the entrained gas.But if the buoyancy of the entrained gas (hydrogen, helium) allows the balloon to float away, then it will displace no water. Even so, it still has mass.
How big is a balloon?
I depends what kind of balloon you have. Maybe you can even make a balloon that issoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo big you'll have trouble holding it. You might be scared that its gonna pop. But when some balloons pop the sound isn't that big. Some times you don't have to be scared to blow a balloon!!!
What is the law in California on repossing your motor home on a vibural contract?
Without documentation to prove that you owned the Motor Home, your best bet is through the courts and even then, you may lose, unless you are still the registered owner.
