Can a blimp filled with helium float in the air?
Yes, it can. Just as helium balloon will.
What happen when a balloon is filled with helium?
Helium is lighter than air and a balloon filled with helium may rise up.
Why does a helium balloon float up when it is released?
Because helium is lighter than air. So helium balloon will rise up.
Why do balloons float when you put helium in them?
The helium weighs less than air- so when the balloon is filled, it displaces the heavier air, and floats. Just as a bit of wood weighs less than water, and floats on water. In a vacuum, a helium filled balloon would not float (but it may pop)
If you wanted to make a balloon float in the air which gas should you use to fill the balloon?
Helium gas is lighter than air and hence balloons filled with helium will float in air.
Is it true or false that to float in air a blimp could be filled with helium?
False
Can a blimp filled with helium float in the air?
Yes, it can. Just as helium balloon will.
Why helium is used to fill a blimp envelope?
So the blimp will stay aloft/still adn will float.
What are balloons that float filled with?
Helium
What does helium have in it that makes it float?
Helium is lighter than air. Hence balloons or blimps filled with helium will float.
Why does a helium balloom float in air?
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air
How does a blimp stay up in the air?
Helium Buoyancy--- This is the same thing that allows boats to float on water. The boat displaces a volume of Water and if the weight of the Boat is lighter than the weight of the displace water, then it floats. This is same with Blimps or Dirigibles. The Blimp is filled with Helium. The volume of the helium inside the blimp is lighter than the weight of the voume of air that it displaces so it rises. When the blimp reaches the higher altitude where the air is thinner (and therefore lighter) then the blimp will stop rising. At this altitude the weight of the blimp EQUALS the weight of the air it displaces.
What gas are balloons filled with to make them float?
Helium
Why do helium-filled balloons float up in the air?
Helium is lighter than air.
Why will helium filled balloons float in the air?
Because helium is lighter than air.
Will warming helium balloons make them float?
Helium is lighter than air. so balloons filled with helium will float in air. warming will make them float or rise up faster.
What happen when a balloon is filled with helium?
Helium is lighter than air and a balloon filled with helium may rise up.
