Helium. The helium gas in the balloon is lighter than the air outside the balloon.
Helium. It is lighter than air and provides buoyancy, causing the balloon to rise.
The hot air, inside of it is very light and makes the balloon rise up.
If there is warm air in the balloon, cooler air makes the balloon rise and if there is cold air in the balloon warmer air makes the balloon fall.
The upthrust exerted by surrounding air on the balloon.
A balloon rises on the principle of buoyancy. This occurs when the net pressure on the bottom of the balloon exceeds the net pressure on top of the balloon.
helium balloon left in sun will expand. sun makes balloon hotter and density will rise balloon
The heating of the air through the use of a burner is what makes balloons rise.
It rises because when thermal engery is in the balloon it makes an expansion that makes the balloon fly
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.
Heating the air in the balloon makes it less dense than the surrounding air, causing the balloon to become buoyant and rise. As the air inside the balloon cools, it becomes denser and the balloon descends. This process allows the pilot to control the altitude of the balloon.
Hot air is lighter than cold air, so cold air sinks and hot air rises; that makes the hot air balloon rise (if the air around the hot air balloon is heated as well, it won't rise, or sink if in the air).
Heating the air makes less air take up the same space, so the air inside the balloon is lighter than the surrounding air. The pilot turns off the burner to help the balloon to maintain the current altitude or to descend.
