How are scientists able to make predictions?

You assume that things that happened repeatedly in a certain way in the past will happen the same way under the same conditions in the future. If you throw a ball up in the air 500 times and it comes down 500 times, you then predict that if you throw a piano into the air it will come down as well. If you throw a helium balloon up in the air for the first time, you might predict it will also come down. When it does not, this means the theory must be rejected or changed to explain what is different this time. If you have a hydrogen balloon and throw it into the air, you might predict that since your helium balloon did not come down and hydrogen is more similar to helium than it is to a piano, then the hydrogen balloon will keep going as well.

The density of hot air is lower than air at low altitudes, but the air at higher altitudes is very thin. A hot air balloon can only rise until its density equals the surrounding air.

The little fragments might spin or tumble, but each and every one would take off away from the explosion in a straight line at a constant speed. That includes all the little parts and pieces of anybody who happened to be inside at the time.

What happens to a balloon on a hot day and what might happen if it gets to hot?

When air is heated, its volume increases. If you fill a balloon with comparably cold air and then let it touch hotter air, the air inside will expand and thereby increase the pressure on the balloon membrane. If this pressure gets too strong, the balloon might pop.

How you know gas is inside the balloon?

If there were nothing inside the balloon - a vacuum - the balloon would quickly collapse due to the pressure of the atmosphere outside it. A firmer structure might resist the air pressure, but not a balloon.


Why does a balloon deflate when cooled?

It might have something to do with the way particles expand under heat and contract when cold. The particles bunch so close together that the balloon falls inward and deflates.

What would happen if you swallowed a balloon?

If you swallow a balloon you will most likely suffocate and die. This may sound a little over the top however it is likely that the balloon will wrap itself round your lungs and will disrupt your respiratory system. On the other hand, a balloon might block one of your vital arteries or might get stuck in your throat. If you swallow a balloon you should call an ambulance immediately.
