To determine how much helium is needed to fill a 6-foot balloon, we first need to calculate its volume. A 6-foot balloon has a diameter of about 6 feet, giving it a radius of 3 feet. The volume of a sphere can be calculated using the formula ( V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^3 ), which results in approximately 113.1 cubic feet. Therefore, it would take roughly 113.1 cubic feet of helium to fill the balloon completely.
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
To keep it hot you. The REASON they use a 'Burner' in a Hot Air Balloon is to 'heat the Air, to 'fill' the Balloon, so it will 'rise'... The only other way to get the air Hot enough to fill the Balloon, would be to make the 'Basket' MUCH, MUCH Larger, and fill it with Liberals, and just let them talk. BUT, I don't think the Balloon would ever get off the ground, because, the BULLCRAP would counteract the Hot Air, and they would cancel each other out...
Helium is a gas that comes from underground in the earth so you would have to dig and then catch it before it rises because helium rises fast
The amount an air balloon can hold depends on its size and design, with regular hot air balloons typically able to carry 2-6 passengers. Larger balloons or specialized designs may have the capacity to carry more weight. Pilots must consider weight limits for safety and proper control of the balloon.
It won't - at some time the balloon would burst or become the same density as the atmosphere, so stop rising. The above answer is correct. At about 110,000 feet or ~ 21+ miles (when the shuttle was well into the stratosphere) the balloon will burst. However to get the space shuttle into the stratosphere it would take 2,029,203,000 liters of helium and would cost approximately $ 146,102,616. Assumptions: Space shuttle weighs: 2,029,203 KG 1 Liter of helium can lift ~ 1 gram. Helium costs approximately 7.2 cents per gram. According to the NASA website it costs $450,000,000 to launch a shuttle. Maybe they should look into using helium to get them the first 20 miles.
A sphere with 3-ft diameter has about 0.4 cubic metre of volume.
How much a helium balloon carries depends on the size of the balloon.
depends how big the helium balloon is and how many
A standard 11-inch helium balloon can lift approximately 14 grams or 0.5 ounces. The lifting capacity of a helium balloon can vary depending on factors such as balloon size, helium volume, and weight of the attached object.
Soccer balls do not contain helium. if they did, they would float like a balloon! Actually, that's not true. A soccer ball would NOT float like a balloon--they weigh too much. It would, however, increase the distance ever so slightly over that of a regular air filled soccer ball. Eventually over time, the helium would dissipate, much like a helium balloon that slowly falls to the ground.
a tank of helium and alot of those balloon thingy's
The weight of the helium gas inside the balloon can be calculated using its molar mass, the Ideal Gas Law, and the given volume. Assuming standard conditions, helium gas has a molar mass of 4 grams per mole. Thus, a 22.4 liter balloon filled with helium gas would weigh approximately 32 grams.
because helium weighs 4u and air (80% nitrogen) weighs about 14u. because helium has less mass, it has less gravity and rises. it has also to be a gas as a substance in a gas form has a much lower density as a liquid or solid form. earlier they used hydrogen (1u), but that is highly explosive. (u is relative mass for atoms)
* Calculate the volume of the ballon * Calculate the weight of the helium: G= V x 0,1786 (the helium density in g/L) * Add the weight of the balloon material (rubber, plastic, etc.)
0.54 grams 1 mol = mass / Mr = mass / 4 (Helium's atomic weight is 4, it is a monoatomic gas) 1 mol = 0.54 / 4 = 0.00135 # of molecules of helium in the balloon = 0.00135 * 6.02 * 10^23
I would say that depends on the size of the balloon, the gas used to fill the balloon and the atmospheric pressure. Based on these parameters, a balloon may take anywhere from a few minutes to few hours to deflate.
Carbon dioxide will keep a balloon inflated longer than helium will, because its molecules are much larger and therefore less able to escape through the material of which the balloon is made.On the other hand, helium is much lighter so will give a balloon greater lift while it lasts.
