A balloon fish that swallows air will float because it weighs less than what?
Water
Why does a heilum balloon float and not a oxyegen balloon?
because helium has less density
Does a balloon float or sink on water and why?
a balloon float on water
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)
Can a hot air balloon float up to the moon?
No, because the atmosphere would pop the balloon.
How balloons and blimps are able to fly in oceans of air?
Balloons float because of the same principal as how ships float: bouyancy. A ship displaces a volume of water. If the ship's weight is less than the volume of water that it displaces, then it will float. Same is true for a balloon. It displaces a volume of air. If the Hydrogen or Helium in the balloon weighs less than the volume of air it displaces, then it will rise.
Can a hot air balloon go above the troposphere?
yes, because there is enough pressure to keep the balloon in the are and a float
What would happen if you were to fill a balloon with oxygen?
First, the balloon would float to the ground. After that, nothing special happens to the balloon because you filled it with oxygen.
Why does an air balloon float?
If you mean hot air balloon then it floats because hot air rises because it is less dense and with enough hot air caught in the balloon it can lift create enough lift to take off into the air. If you mean a helium balloon then it rises because helium in the balloon is less dense then the air around it. Since less dense things rise to the top the balloon will float.
Can a hydrogen filled balloon float in vacuum?
no it will not. because a balloon filled with hydrogen floats only because it is lighter than air so when there is a vacuum it will not float. it is like oil and water if there is no water oil is on the bottom if there is water it is on the top.
Can you make a balloon that float in air?
Fill a balloon part way with helium, make an animal out of it and have it float.
Why can't a hot air balloon float in outer space?
The key word there is float. There is nothing in space for a hot air balloon to float on.
