Is a hot air balloon filled with nitrogen?
It is filled with heated air. Since air is mostly nitrogen, a hot air balloon is mostly filled with nitrogen.
Is helium gas in a hot air balloon?
No, hot air balloons, as the name suggests, contain hot air, not helium.
Why is a high altitude hot air balloon only partially filled?
As it rises, outside air pressure decreases, and the hot air inside expands and fills the balloon. Same thing is true of large helium balloons.
Why does a hot air 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.
Is hot air balloons filled with helium?
No, it is filled with heated air.
How does a hot air balloon float if it only filled with air and not helium?
its air deal with it thank you
How helium power is in a hot air balloon?
A hot air balloon doesn't contain helium.
Does a hot air balloon have helium inside it?
No, I am sorry, but there is no helium inside a hot-air balloon. Instead, there is hot air.
How do helium balloons work?
helium balloons get filled with a amount of air in which is called helium it is used to make balloons float around in air. helium is a inert,gaseous element!!!!!yea i kenisha am smartHelium is less dense than air, therefore a helium-filled balloon will float in air.Helium is lighter that air, so it effectively floats on air. As a helium balloon is submerged in air, it rises upwards (like an air filled bubble in water).
Something you can fill a balloon with?
Balloons are filled with gas (such as helium), or a mixture of gasses (such as air) or hot gasses (such as hot air).Helium.
Is there more helium or hydrogen in a hot air balloon?
A hot air balloon doesn't contain helium or hydrogen.
Why are Hot air balloons are filled with air instead of helium?
They are not! The air inside them is trapped in the balloon and heated, expands, becomes less dense and rises therefore pulling the balloon up with it. If helium was used it would explode! :)

What causes hot air balloons to fly?
Usually only balloons that are filled with helium will float. Helium is a gas that is lighter than air, so causes the balloon to fly. Note that if you blow a balloon yourself, it will just float to the ground. There are also hot air balloons in which the air is heated by an on board heater. Hot air, being lighter than cold air, rises and lifts the balloon. When the air cools, unless it is reheated, the balloon descends.
