Consider a balloon that is being inflated As the balloon increases in size the area of its surface increases Each time the balloon's diameter doubles what do you expect for the change in the area?

For any geometric figure, surface area is proportional to (linear dimensions)2 .As the balloon's diameter doubles, its area increases by the factor of (2)2 = 4 .


When you replace helium in a balloon with less dense hydrogen does the buoyant force on the balloon change if the balloon remains the same size?

Yes. The helium will seep through ths skin of the balloon, reducing its buoyancy.


Examples of charles' Law?

Charles law states that if the temperature of a gas increases, then the volume increases (and the opposite a.k.a. temp. goes down, volume goes down). Imagine a balloon filled with helium on a cold winter day. While you are in the shop, the balloon is normal. As you step outside the balloon begins to shrivel up. This happens because of the temp. of the helium in the balloon deceases and becomes less dense, because the helium particles lose energy and become more concentrated, decreasing the volume. But when you put the balloon in a warm area, it goes back to its original size. I hope this helped you.


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 will the relationship between volume and pressure affect a long skinny balloon that is twisted into the shape of a animal?

As you twist the balloon, the volume decreases. In accordance with Boyle's Law, volume and pressure are inversely related. As the volume decreases, the pressure increases. This is pretty intuitive: you know that if you make enough twists in the balloon, eventually the pressure will cause it to pop.

What happens to the mass in a balloon when heated?

the mass of the balloon increases because the size of the balloon has increased. :)


Does the pressure inside the bag of balloon increases or decreases?

As the bag of balloon rises, the pressure inside the bag of balloon decreases. Air pressure generally decreases as the altitude increases.


How does Jacques Charles law relate to aerodynamics?

He 'flew' in helium balloons. Volume increases as temperature increases. In a hot air balloon temp increases so volume increases and some air must leave the balloon. The balloon now has lift because it weighs less than the cold air outside the balloon, just like buoyancy of a boat in water.


When did the first hot air balloon get made?

its effect increases as balloon moves upward


What happens to a balloon when the gas in it increases?

It expands.


When balloon ascends its velocity decreases?

no it increases


What happens to the volume of Balloon left on a sunny windowsill?

It would increase. The balloon would expand because when temperature increases, volume increases as well.


What happens to a balloon if you keep blowing air into it?

the volume of air inside the balloon increases while the pressure of balloon decreases thus balloon inflates

The air in hot air balloon is heated to make the balloon rise?

The volume of air increases on its heating hence the balloon rises on heating


If a balloon is filled with more air its pressure increases then why it is called an intensive property?

ntensive property of a balloon


How hot and cold temperature affect air balloon?

When the balloon is hot the density of the air in it decreases and hence the upward thrust on the balloon increases and the balloon moves up and viceversa.
