I think it drops the ballast (sand filled bags) which are attached to the basket

What causes heat in air molecules in a hot air balloon to carry thermal energy to the top of the balloon?
Convection. :)
When Heated air molecules in a hot air balloon soon carry thermal energy to the top of the balloon?
convection
How much weight can a balloon carry?
2 pounds at most... teehee
Does a large balloon build up more static electricity than a small one?
yes a bigger balloon produce more static electricity.Why will because it has more space to carry more static electricity.There you go i answered your question.
Which gas is used to fill balloons?
Helium is normally used in balloons that float. Helium is the second lightest gas. Hydrogen is lighter, but it is also flammable and thus dangerous.When normal air is used to fill a balloon, the balloon will not be buoyant.If you fill a balloon with air from your lungs, there is a bit more water vapor and a bit more carbon dioxide and a bit less oxygen in the air inside the balloon, but that has a small impact on the buoyancy.The larger balloons that carry people are called hot air balloons because they are filled with hot air. They are buoyant because the hot air is fractionally lighter than normal air but there is a lot of it.Weather balloons and party balloons both use helium gas.As long as the gas plus the balloon is lighter than the air it displaces, the balloon will float in the air.Helium is normally used in balloons that float. Helium is the second lightest gas. Hydrogen is lighter, but it is also flammable and thus dangerous.When normal air is used to fill a balloon, the balloon will not be buoyant.If you fill a balloon with air from your lungs, there is a bit more water vapor and a bit more carbon dioxide and a bit less oxygen in the air inside the balloon, but that has a small impact on the buoyancy.The larger balloons that carry people are called hot air balloons because they are filled with hot air.

How will the hot air balloon be used in the future?
It willl carry people
Can a bow and arrow pop a hot air balloon?
Not really, only small balloons will "pop". Hot air balloons that are large enough to carry people will lose air ( & lift) when the balloon is penetrated or torn. The balloon will lose its ability to stay up in the air.AnswerIt's highly unlikely that an arrow would reach a hot air balloon unless it were very close to the ground
Can a helium balloon carry people?
Haven't you heard of balloon boy? LOL! Just kidding! Um no I don't think it's possible sorry.
Can a balloon carry more weight than a plastic bag?
No a balloon carry lighter weight then a plastic bag.
An ant can carry things heavier than his weight?
yes. the ant can carry things heavier than its weight
What small balloon used to carry meteorological instruments into the atmosphere?
Just a met balloon - meteorological balloon. Generally filled with hydrogen.
How much do helium balloons carry?
How much a helium balloon carries depends on the size of the balloon.
What was necesary for the hot air ballon to be succesfull?
A hot air balloon needs to carry a means of producing more hot air to keep the envelop inflated and lifting in flight. Otherwise, as the initial hot air cools, so the balloon will descend to the ground.
What causes heat in air molecules in a hot air balloon to carry thermal energy to the top of the balloon?
Convection. :)
What mass can a hot hot-air balloon carry?
That depends on the ratio of the mass in the basket to the mass of the balloon. The bigger the carrying mass the greater the size of the balloon.
How much weight can the really big balloon carry?
nothing
Heated air molecules in a hot air balloon soon carry thermal energy to the top of the balloon. This is an example of?
Convection.
