Why is a balloon heavier when it is blown up with air?

This depends on whether you consider what is inside the balloon to be a part of the balloon, since the weight of the balloon skin will remain the same regardless of what is inside it. If, however, you consider the contents of the balloon to constitute a part of the balloon's mass then it will always be heavier when inflated, regardless of the density of the substance with which it is inflated. However, in this case the density of the balloon will fall when inflated if the contents are less dense than the material of the balloon, which is highly likely since the substance would probably be a gas. Therefore the balloon would be heavier but less dense.


While a balloon is being filled if the temperature of the air in the balloon decreases what happens to its volume?

volume decreases considering the pressure is constant


What is the action and reaction force during blowing a balloon?

Air fill the balloon and force it to expand but being a rubber base substance the balloon always in the state of pushing the air (that's why if you put a hole on a balloon it will "fly"). Air pushing is an action. Balloon pushing back is a reaction.


In kids doing the funniest things why did the balloon pop?

Why does the pressure outside the balloon decrease as it rises?

The pressure outside the balloon doesn't change when the balloon rises. By a balloon rising, I assume that air is being placed into the balloon. As the balloon fills with air, the pressure inside the balloon will increase. Since the balloon can stretch, the increasing pressure against its inner walls will cause it to rise, or more correctly put, expand. Eventually, the balloon will be stretched to its fullest capacity if more air is placed inside it. When it pops, the bang you hear is the high pressure of the atmosphere inside the balloon equalizing with the lower pressure of the atmosphere outside the balloon.

How much room do you need to launch a hot air balloon?

Generally an area as long as the height of the balloon standing up, with at least 3-4 metres or longer (depending on the size of the balloon) for the crown line that helps stabilise the balloon as it is being inflated. The width should be about half the height, but this can vary as there is some leeway, particularly if there are balloons being inflated together side by side.


What is over-inflated?

Over inflation is when (for example) a car tyre is pumped up higher than the manufacture recommends. A toy balloon blown up until it burst, is another example of something being over inflated.


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 .
