What happens to a balloon when pressure becomes less?
When the internal pressure in a balloon falls, the balloon get smaller and less buoyant.
Is a hot-air balloon buoyant?
Yes, hot air balloons are less dense and therefore buoyant ============================================ Hot air balloons are buoyant to the extent that the weight of the hot air in the balloon is lighter than the free air. When the difference is more than the weight of the balloon and its contents it will be buoyant and will ascend.
MasteringPhysics What is the magnitude of the buoyant force on the balloon?
The magnitude of a buoyant force on a balloon depends on the size of the balloon. In other words, the force will be either big or small depending on the correlating size of the balloon in use with the experiment.
What is more buoyant air filled balloon or Styrofoam?
Under water they are as buoyant as each other but on land the balloon will float away and the Styrofoam will stay.
Does the buoyant force on a submerged inflated balloon increase as it sinks?
No, it actually might decrease due to balloon being compressed by pressure. Floating objects are governed by Archimedes Principle which states that the weight of a floating object is equal to the water it displaces. A corollary of Archimedes Principle is that the buoyant force acting on an object is equal to the volume of water displaced. Therefore, when a balloon is compressed as it submerges it displaces less water and the buoyant force decreases proportionately.
Which has a greater buoyant force a huge lead zepplin or a small helium filled balloon?
a small helium balloon :) i think.... i dont actually know the answer i just know that a small helium balloon will be very buoyant :)
What will happen when an air filled balloon is pulled to the bottom of a swimming pool?
Because the pressure weighing down on the the balloon is greater than the pressure protruding from the balloon, the dominant force will cause the balloon to pop. This strictly depends on the amount in weight the water has on it, since the balloon can rise and become buoyant if not descended sufficiently.
How will you measure the buoyant force of a balloon?
Measure how much it can lift.
Can we say that atmospheric pressure also keeps the object on ground like gravititional force?
No. Quite on the contrary: Air provides a buoyant force, that will partially counteract the force of gravity. And if the object has a low density (as in a balloon), it may even get the object from the ground.
How are the forces inside of the closed balloon balanced?
Buoyant force and weight
Why is there no horizontal buoyant force on an submerged object?
Because the buoyant force is the result of different pressure at different depths, and there is no difference in pressure horizontally.
If you were to turn on the burner on in the hot air balloon what effect would it have on the air in the balloon?
When the burner on a hot air balloon is turned on the air inside the balloon is heated making it less dense. This will cause the balloon to be more buoyant and climb.
