Why can't a hot air balloon float in outer space?
A hot air balloon requires air to generate lift. In outer space, there is no air or atmosphere, so there is nothing for the hot air balloon to displace to generate lift, causing it to be unable to float.
Would the space shuttle float on water?
It should, it's air tight. An Aircraft carrier floats and it's hugh. Any rocket scientists out there?
What would happen to an orange in space?
In the vacuum of space, an orange would freeze and dehydrate quickly due to the lack of atmospheric pressure. Without air pressure to keep the water in the orange from boiling off, the fruit would dry out from the exposed water vapor. Eventually, it would become shriveled and freeze-dried.
What happens when your in space?
In space, you experience microgravity, which means you feel weightless. Without gravity, you float around and objects don't fall to the ground. The lack of air and extreme temperatures can also affect how your body functions.
Where in the atmosphere do hot air balloons float?
Hot air balloons float because hot air displaces cool air in the atmosphere
Why air does not float in space?
density

How do Saturn's rings stay in the air and float without going into space?
They don't fly away because of Saturn's gravity.
How little gravity would it take until you floated up and away like a helium balloon?
No matter how little gravity, as long as it is still positive, you would not float. For that, you would have to have less density than the air. With zero gravity, both we and the air would float away into space.
Why do you not float into the air?
We do not float into the air because of gravity, the force that pulls objects toward each other. Gravity keeps us grounded on the Earth's surface by attracting us toward its center. If gravity didn't hold us down, we would indeed float away into space.
Why does chillies float on water?
A whole chili pepper contains an air space, so will float on water.
Why do chilly float on water?
A whole chili pepper contains an air space, so will float on water.
Where does the parts go after it comes of shuttle when its in the air?
They float around in Space
What is the use of the air space in a water spangle?
to help it to float on water.
Why doesnt a balloon float with your air?
A balloon does not float with your breath because the air you blow into it is denser than the surrounding air. To make a balloon float, you need to use a lighter gas, such as helium, which is less dense than the surrounding air and creates enough lift to keep the balloon suspended.
How does the buoyant force acting on a rock differ in the air or space?
It differs by the amount of buoyancy the rock contains. In the air it is much more heavier. In space, it is much more buoyant. But if let off of the scale in water, it would plainly sink, and if let off the scale in space, it would float away into the universe.
If you pushed off from something in space would you float away for ever?
If you push off from something in space without any external force acting on you, you will continue moving forward at a constant velocity due to inertia. However, in the absence of gravity or other forces, you will not float away forever. Your initial push will determine how far you drift before coming to a stop or encountering another object, as there is no air resistance or friction in space to slow you down.
