I think thhat it just goes until it pops and i don't think it could even go that far!'

Does a balloon filled with heleum depend on gravity?

I am not sure what you mean by 'depend' (please try and make your questions clear) but if you mean does the fact that a helium filled balloon will float (or rise) depend on gravity? Then the answer is Yes. if you were to take a helium filled balloon to the space station and release it inside, it would not rise, it would behave just the same as if you released a bunch of keys.


What happens to a balloon if it goes in space?

In space, a balloon would expand as the air inside expands due to the lack of external pressure. Eventually, the balloon would burst as the pressure inside becomes too great for the balloon material to contain.


How much helium would it take to lift the space shuttle into space?

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.


Where does the helium that is formed during the hydrogen fusion go?

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


When a balloon is filled with air and suddenly released it will fly around the room as the air escapes If compared to a space transportation the air is most similer to what subsystem of spacecraft?

The air in the balloon is most similar to the propulsion system of a spacecraft, which provides the thrust needed to move the spacecraft through space. Just as the air escaping the balloon propels it around the room, the propulsion system of a spacecraft releases propellant to generate thrust and propel the spacecraft through space.

What will a helium filled balloon do in space?

In space, a helium-filled balloon will expand further due to the lack of air pressure outside the balloon. Eventually, the balloon will burst because the pressure from the helium inside will exceed the pressure outside.


Is balloons filled with helium a chemical change?

A balloon is filled with helium. Athough, it can be a chemical and physical change. For example you can take the helium out of the balloon, but you cant put it back in it now that its already in the air.

What A balloon contains helium gas how are the helium atoms distributed in the balloon?

In a balloon filled with helium gas, the helium atoms are evenly distributed throughout the available space. They move freely and randomly due to their kinetic energy, colliding with each other and the balloon's inner walls. This distribution results in a uniform pressure inside the balloon, as the helium atoms exert force equally in all directions. Over time, if the balloon is not tightly sealed, some helium atoms may escape, leading to a decrease in pressure and volume.


A balloon filled with helium pops in a classroom what space does thelium occupy?

The helium would take up the whole space of the classroom because it is a gas. A gas can expand as far as it likes because it has an indefinite shape and volume.


Is helium in a balloon an example of matter?

Matter is anything that has volume and occupies space. Helium (in balloon) is a gas and has both these properties. So. it is an example of matter.


What is between the helium particles in a helium-filled balloon?

I'd say radiation magnetism doesn't quite seem to fit nor electric consciousness is a possible maybe being thought therefore some electric conductivity of a kind yet that seems to suggest magnetism back to what is magnetism therefore suggestion is deemed persay-radiation. unsure to this minute about radiation. checking web for informative research.


Could you use helium to float an item into space?

No, air pressure increases as the balloon goes up, so the balloon will pop and fall to the ground. You can get high up in the atmosphere (but you need a LOT of helium and a balloon that can get VERY big) you will not reach "outer" space beyond the Earth's atmosphere.


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


Will a balloon pop in space?

That depends on how much air is in the balloon and how high the temperature gets. As the sun shines, it heats the air in the balloon. This causes the air to expand. This air pushes against the insides of the ballon making it swell up and stretch. If there is enough air in the balloon and the temperature increases to a high enough level, then the air pressure can get to high, it will cause the balloons skin to stretch to far and the balloon can pop.

When a gas like helium is used to fill balloons it does what and takes the shape of the balloon?

When helium is used to fill a balloon, it expands to fill the space inside the balloon due to its low density. The helium gas takes the shape of the balloon because it moves and distributes evenly throughout the balloon's interior.
