What happens to a hot air balloon when the burner is turned off?

the particles begin to slow down and relax releasing the lift of the balloon at a slow rate which is why its safe to ride.


What is free lift in pilot balloon?

The free lift of the Pilot Balloon is defined as the difference between the total lift and the weight of the balloon and its load. The free lift is really the net buoyancy of the balloon. Thus free lift is the force tending to drive the balloon (Hydrogen filled) upward, which depends upon the amount of hydrogen gas filled in it. If a hydrogen balloon is inflated until it floats with certain weight attached to it, than it indicates that the attached weight balances the upward force acting on it. This weight is called free lift of the balloon and if weight is removed, the balloon rises up (with fixed rate of ascent corresponding to weight attached while inflating).


What happens to the heart and blood of an astronaut in space?

The smooth muscles inside the blood vessels adjust to the micro gravity in order to work properly, the same way they work on Earth. Also the heart rate slows since the muscles of the legs are not in use due to the lack of gravity


How long a day in mercury?

>>10 hours / small planet= quicker rotation This is flase. The size of the planet does not have much to do with its rotation rate, particularely in a planet made of silicate. Stars in general change their rotation rate with time and people believe it may be related with generation of magnetic field for example. The planet Mercury rotates very slowly. While Earth has a solar day OS 24h Mercury's solar day is about 176 Earth days. It takes Mercury around six months to give a full turn over its own axis.


Why isn't mercury in synchronous rotation with respect to the Sun?

The Sun created a significant tidal bulge on Mercury when it was still a young, molten planet; when the planet solidified, this bulge was locked in place. Mercury is so close to the Sun that the Sun's gravitational force on Mercury's tidal bulges changed the planet's rotation rate. However, Mercury's highly eccentric orbit has prevented the planet from getting locked into synchronous rotation.

How are your breathing rate and pulse rate related?

The breathing rate and pulse rate are related proportionally. If the breathing rate increases, so does the pulse rate. The pulse rate is an indication of the breathing rate.

What is the normal tibial pulse rate?

A distal pulse should be the same rate as a femoral pulse, carotid pulse, brachial pulse, pedal pulse, or radial pulse. The strength of the pulse may be harder to feel the further away from the heart, but the rate should be the same. One heart, One Pulse Rate. The Normal heart rate/pulse in an adult is 60-100 beats per minute. Less of course, in the super healthy athlete.


What are the 2 connections between respiration rate and pulse rate?

The respiration rate is your breathing rate and your pulse rate is your heart beat.


Why do you think your pulse rate is not fast when you are at rest?

Our pulse rate increases with the increasement in the motion of the body.as a result, when we are fixed at a place, our pulse rate is minimumand inversely when we are in motion our pulse is fast
