The fire raises it not the heat of the temperature in the air that day. The wouldn't put a hot air balloon up when it was freezing cold or heaps windy.

Why would heating the gas in balloon make the balloon rise?

if you mean how the hot air in a hot air balloon makes it rise, its because hot air is less dense than cold air. when cold and hot air meet the cold air sinks thus making hot air left to rise.so when you put hot air in a balloon the air would rise. hope this helps.


Will a balloon rise higher with hot air or cold air?

Hot air


How does hot and cold air have an effect on an balloon?

If there is warm air in the balloon, cooler air makes the balloon rise and if there is cold air in the balloon warmer air makes the balloon fall.


Why does a balloon need hot air?

A balloon needs hot air to make it rise because hot air is less dense than cold air. When the air inside the balloon is heated, it becomes lighter and causes the balloon to lift off the ground and float in the air.

What kind gas is used in hot air balloon?

No Gas Just hot air which is why it is called a hot air balloon. If you were wondering hot air is lighter than cold air which makes it rise so when it is trapped inside the balloon the whole thing will rise.


Why does heating the air in hot air balloon make it rise?

Hot air is lighter than cold air, so cold air sinks and hot air rises; that makes the hot air balloon rise (if the air around the hot air balloon is heated as well, it won't rise, or sink if in the air).


Why does it have to be hot air and not cold inside the envelope of a hot air balloon?

hot air rises; it is lighter than cool air It does not have to be Hot Air inside the balloon, unless you want that Balloon to rise up.Hot Air is less dense than Cold Air and hence the former is lighter.


Why the hot air balloon needs hot air to make it rise?

Hot air balloons use hot air because hot air rises above cold air. The air inside the balloon is heated above the temperature of the air outside the balloon. The warmer air trapped inside the balloon then causes the balloon to float above the outside colder air.


Why wont a hot air ballon fly in cold air?

A hot air balloon needs hot air to rise. In colder air, the balloon loses its buoyancy and cannot generate enough lift to stay airborne. Cold air is denser and heavier, which makes it harder for the hot air balloon to ascend.


In hot weather will a balloon rise higher than in cold weather?

Yes, hot air always rises while cold air sinks


How does heat affect flight?

Hot air is lighter than cold air. If you fill a balloon with hot air, the air inside will be lighter than the air outside and therefore the balloon will rise (until the air inside gets cold again).
