Hot air is less dense than cold air, thus hot air rises in cold air. Hot air balloons trap the hot air, thus creating an upward force at the top of the balloon. With sufficient mass, the upward force upon the balloon can overcome gravity, lifting both the balloon and the burner (used to heat the air) up off the ground. To lift people you need a much larger envelope to hold the required mass of hot air to overcome the gravitational pull.
The air in the balloon is heated by a burner to make it expand (become less dense). They have a lever that they pull that releases fire.The fire makes hot air and it hits the top of the hot air balloon that makes it rise.
Helium-filled balloons are more commonly known as blimps (airships) which do not use burners because helium is lighter-than-air to begin with. Helium replaced hydrogen which was originally used in blimps. Using burners on hydrogen would have been foolhardy at best (refer to the Hindenburg disaster).
Because of hot air.

yes honey, that's why hot air balloons rise
A hot air balloon rises because when hot air is added it is intended to rise and when the hot air balloons wants to land, hot air is decreased.
Wind !... The balloons are filled with hot air, which causes them to rise. They are then at the mercy f the wind direction.
they contain helium molecules which are lighter than the air we breath making the balloons rise
This is because of convection. Hot air rises and cool air falls which causes the balloon to rise.
Hot-air balloons can rise up into the air because hot air is lighter, allowing it to float up into the sky.

hot-air balloons and birds in flight.
Hot air is less dense than cooler air, therefore the balloon will rise (float) on the cooler air around it.
The hot air from the burner rises since it has little density, and then is caught in the balloon, which causes it to rise.

The heating of the air through the use of a burner is what makes balloons rise.

At a hot air balloon festival, hot air balloons slowly fill and then rise majestically in the predawn sky. These hot air balloons fly because of two fundamental principles of physics: the ideal gas law and Archimedes's principle.
A helium balloon does not need energy to rise in the air. A hot air balloon needs fuel to rise in air. That is it needs heat energy to rise in air.i love Pizza squares i hope they put helium in then one dayHelium relies on the fact that helium is lighter than air. Hot air balloons rely on the fact that hot air has less volume than cold air and is lighter than the air around it. hot air balloons use hot air to cause the balloon to lift as helium balloons use a special gas to cause lift
This is because of convection. Hot air rises and cool air falls which causes the balloon to rise.
