The average speed of a hot air balloon depends a lot on the environment. The Pacific Flyer actually recorded the fastest ground speed for a manned balloon at 245 mph.
It is the average speed of the wind.
the speed and direction
A hot air balloon flies because it is filled with hot air. Hot air rises and causes the balloon to lift from the ground.
Because the fire or heating device heats the air in the top section ( the actual balloon ) and hot air rises... so the hot air trapped in the balloon makes the balloon rise :)

Slow
Velocity = Distance/Time for most all movement problems While the above formula is true for most movement problems, air speed is not a velocity. Air speed is speed of an aircraft relative to the surrounding air. The air speed of a hot air balloon is always zero because it is not moving through the air.
It travels at the speed of the wind.

to make a hot air balloon rise you use hot air
a hot air balloon virtually weighs negative lbs but it would depend on how hot the air is in the balloon.
There is specific Tagalog translation of HOT AIR BALLOON? HOT - maiit AIR- hangin BALLOON- lobo
