Why does a hot air balloon need flame in order to take off?
A hot air balloon needs a flame to heat the air inside the balloon, making it less dense than the surrounding air. This temperature difference creates lift, allowing the balloon to float upwards. Without the flame, the air inside the balloon would cool down and the balloon would descend.
What is the purpose of the flame that is lit below a hot air balloon?
To increase enthalpy.the burner uses flames to heat the air so the balloon will rise
What fuel is used in hot air balloons?
Propane. This is what makes the flame that heats the air in the balloon.
How is a hot air balloon able to float with a flame?
As to the reason a hot air balloon floats has already been explained, I will answer your question regarding the flame. The gas burner provides the flame which is placed just in the mouth of the ballon, when lit it provides more heat to the cooling air in the balloon causing the balloon to maintain altitude.
How does a candle powered hot air balloon work?
A candle-powered hot air balloon works by heating the air inside the balloon with a suspended candle flame. As the air inside the balloon is heated, it becomes less dense and rises, creating lift. The balloon will continue to rise until the air inside cools down or the flame is extinguished.

What is the purpose of the flame that is lit below a hot air ballon?
That flame is the source of heat for the hot air in the hot air balloon.
Is an air inside a balloon a pure substance?
The air inside a hot air balloon is the same as normal air around the balloon and the air you're breathing, only heated by the flame inside the balloon, hence HOT AIR balloon.

How does a flame enable a hot air balloon to float?
Because it heats the air and of course the hot air will rise above the cold air causing it to float!
What are the parts of a hot air balloon?
A hot air balloon is a machine that allows people to fly. It is comprised of a gigantic balloon attached to a basket where people stand. Under the balloon is a gas burner that lets out a large flame. The flame fills the balloon with heat, expanding it and enabling it to fly.
How does a hot air balloon go in the air?
A hot air balloon rises due to the principle of buoyancy. The air inside the balloon is heated, which causes it to become lighter and less dense than the surrounding air. This difference in density creates lift, causing the balloon to float upwards.
How does a burner flame cause a balloon to rise and stay aloft?
As the flame burns it heats the air around it making the air less dense than the cooler air above, the warm air particles rise to the top of the balloon and the balloon rises with the air. Essentially a hot air balloon uses a convection current to stay in the air.
How does the flame in an hot air balloon enable the balloon to float in the air?
The flame heats the air contained in the balloon. This causes the air to expand, thus it becomes less dense than the air surrounding the balloon. Once the air in the balloon is sufficiently less dense than the surrounding air to overcome the weight of the balloons materials, it will lift into the air.
