Under water they are as buoyant as each other but on land the balloon will float away and the Styrofoam will stay.

Elephant. :)


Is a hot-air balloon buoyant?

Yes, hot air balloons are less dense and therefore buoyant ============================================ Hot air balloons are buoyant to the extent that the weight of the hot air in the balloon is lighter than the free air. When the difference is more than the weight of the balloon and its contents it will be buoyant and will ascend.


Which of a hydrogen filled balloon air filled balloon and a carbon dioxide filled balloon will deflate the fastest and which is the slowest and explain your answer?

A hydrogen balloon will deflate the fastest because molecules of hydrogen are the smallest and thus will more easily slip through the latex of the balloon. The carbon dioxide-filled balloon will deflate the slowest because these molecules are the biggest, and thus will have more trouble escaping the tiny pores in the balloon.


Why is a balloon more buoyant on a hot day?

the heat gives the molecules more energy to move around and rise.


If you were to turn on the burner on in the hot air balloon what effect would it have on the air in the balloon?

When the burner on a hot air balloon is turned on the air inside the balloon is heated making it less dense. This will cause the balloon to be more buoyant and climb.


What is an example of a buoyant force increasing with more volume even if same weight?

A balloon attached to a lead weight.


Medium balloon and small balloon filled with hellium which holds more heat?

Small Balloon because it is smaller the heat is compacted and closer so the smaller balloon has more heat.


If a balloon is filled with more air its pressure increases then why it is called an intensive property?

ntensive property of a balloon


Are helium balloons more dense than air baloons?

No. At the same pressure, a helium filled balloon will be less dense than an air-filled balloon.


Does a latex balloon stick more than a helium balloon?

Latex is the material a balloon can be made of. Helium is a gas that a balloon can be filled with. The question does not make sense. Please restate the question.


Which has more volume a balloon filled with water or air?

The volum is similar, the mass is different.


Why would heating the gas in a hot air balloon make the balloon rise?

When the gas (air) in a hot air balloon is heated it becomes less dense. This makes the balloon more buoyant so it rises.Because heating the air inside the balloon makes it less dense than the air surrounding the outside of the balloon, so it will rise.
