Blimps are non-rigid airships. Their shape is determined by the design of the envelope (inflatable bag). Most common airships are shaped like a cigar.

What best describes the force of atmospheric pressure on a blimp?

The force of atmospheric pressure on a blimp is what allows it to stay inflated and maintain its shape. The pressure inside the blimp is slightly higher than the surrounding atmosphere, which pushes against the walls of the blimp and keeps it buoyant. If the pressure inside the blimp is lower than the outside atmosphere, the blimp will deflate.


What describes the force of atmospheric pressure on a blimp?

The force of atmospheric pressure on a blimp is what helps it to stay inflated and maintain its shape. The blimp is designed to have a higher pressure inside than outside, creating buoyancy that enables it to float in the air. Changes in atmospheric pressure can impact the altitude and stability of the blimp.


What is the tagalog word for blimp?

The Tagalog word for blimp is "himpapawid na pagulong."


Why does a blimp not depend on the direction of the wind?

because the blimp is propelled by to engines one on each side of blimp


Why is a zeppelin unusual?

A zeppelin was a lighter-than-air craft like a blimp or balloon, yet it had a rigid airframe like a heavier-than-air craft. If you punctured a hole in a nonrigid blimp or balloon, or a semi rigid dirigible, it would deflate and lose its shape, whereas the rigid airframe of a zeppelin would hold its shape.


What is the motion of a blimp propeller?

A blimp propeller spins in a circular motion, creating thrust that helps propel the blimp forward. The propeller is typically mounted at the front or rear of the blimp and its rotation can be controlled to change the direction of the blimp's movement.


Which has more mass a blimp or a textbook?

Probably the blimp. Unless the blimp is a tiny toy, or the textbook is really huge.

What is a blimp-?

A blimp is an airship constructed with a non-rigid lifting agent container.


What is the force of atmospheric of a blimp?

The force of buoyancy acting on a blimp is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the blimp. This force allows the blimp to float in the air. The blimp is designed to have a volume that displaces enough air to generate sufficient buoyancy to counteract the force of gravity acting on the blimp.


When was the blimp invented?

the blimp was invented in 1778, by Ilisence Shlick
