What are viechles in the air?

Vehicles in the air include airplanes, helicopters, hot air balloons, drones, and gliders. They are all designed to travel through the air for various purposes such as transportation, recreation, and exploration.


What did Jacques Alexandre Charles first attempted to use hydrogen as in gas?

Jacques Alexandre Charles first attempted to use hydrogen as a replacement for hot air in hot air balloons in 1783. This led to the first manned flight using hydrogen gas in December of the same year.


What is the difference between troposphere and the thermoshpere?

The difference between the troposphere and the thermosphere is the troposphere is the second layer of the atmosphere where all of the birds hot air balloons and airplanes fly. The Thermosphere is the third layer of the atmosphere where their is less oxygen.


Why is the coldest layer of the atmosphere next to the hottest layer of the atmosphere?

The coldest layer of the atmosphere is in the Mesosphere. This is because temperatures are decreasing as the Mesosphere extends upward above the Stratosphere. The air is thinner because the air particles are further apart. The next layer, known as the Thermosphere is the hottest layer. The reason why this layer is so hot, is because it contains fewer air molecules then the other layers, making the air very thin and easy to warm. The Thermosphere is closest to the sun and most sensitive to solar energy which is why it gets hot very quickly.


What is the hot outermost layer of air called?

The hot outermost layer of Earth's atmosphere is called the thermosphere. It is located approximately 80 to 550 kilometers above the Earth's surface and is characterized by high temperatures due to the absorption of solar radiation.

What layer of the atmosphere do hot air balloons go in?

Hot air balloons typically operate in the layer of the atmosphere known as the troposphere, which is the layer closest to the Earth's surface. This is where most weather events occur and where temperature decreases with altitude.


What layer of the atmosphere does hot air balloons fly?

Hot air balloons typically fly in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. This layer extends from the Earth's surface up to an average altitude of about 8-15 kilometers. The temperature decreases with altitude in the troposphere, which helps to create the temperature difference necessary for hot air balloons to generate lift.


Are hot air balloons a practical way to travel?

Only if you're The Wizard of Oz.


Are hot air balloons a good way to travel?

Yes, but only in light winds.


What is something interesting about hot air balloons?

Hot air balloons were the first successful human-carrying flight technology, dating back to the 18th century. They operate on the principle that hot air is lighter than cool air, allowing them to lift off the ground. Hot air balloons offer a serene flying experience and are a popular choice for sightseeing and recreational air travel.


Where are hot air balloons seen during festivals in North America?

Hot air balloons can be seen over several major cities during festivals, depending on the festival. For example, hot air balloons will travel over Atlanta and New York City during certain key events.


What types of hot air balloons are there?

There are traditional hot air balloons, special-shaped hot air balloons (such as animals, objects, or characters), and solar-powered hot air balloons that use solar energy to heat the air inside.


Where in the atmosphere do hot air balloons float?

Hot air balloons float because hot air displaces cool air in the atmosphere


Why lighter than air balloons fly?

air balloons or hot air balloons fly because they fill with a very light type of air. The air is hot air.


What level of the atmosphere can a hot air balloon travel?

Hot air balloons can travel in the troposphere, which is the lowest layer of Earth's atmosphere. They typically fly at altitudes ranging from a few hundred feet to a few thousand feet above the ground.
