Which companies offer hot air balloon rides?
Hot air balloon rides are very popular in California, as well as in the New England area. Companies that offer hot air balloon rides are: US Hot Air Balloon, California Dreamin, and San Diego Balloon Rides.
When did the hot air balloon come to the us?
The hot air balloon was introduced into the United States in the late 1700s. The first flight was on January 9, 1793 in Philadelphia.
Where can one find hot air balloon tours in the USA?
There are a variety of sites that offer information for a variety of Hot Air Balloon tours in the United States. The site Balloon Rides US offers listings for a wide range of locations in the US where the company provides balloon tours.
Does regular hot air run a hot air balloon?
Yes. Same ol´air as a all around us, just heated up.
Where can you go on hot air balloon flights in the US?
If you visit the Ballon Ride US website, you may book hot air balloon flights for different areas within the United States. Prices range from $160 to $225 USD per person.
How does a balloon rise against gravity?
A balloon rises against gravity because of buoyancy force - the difference in density between the air inside the balloon and the surrounding air creates an upward force. By heating the air inside the balloon (hot air balloon) or by using a gas that is lighter than air (like helium or hydrogen), the balloon becomes less dense and is lifted up.
What happens to a balloon at room temperature?
The balloon will expand and (maybe) burst. Charles's Law states that Volume/Temperature=Constant, that is, temperature increase will cause a volume increase. When the air surrounding us becomes hotter, it compresses downward and may cause a balloon to fall rapidly from the sky. Notice in the very hot regions when the temperature gets too hot that airplanes cannot take off as there isn't enough "lift" with the hotter sinking air?
What air is used to blow a balloon with the mouth?
Carbon dioxide, the air we have in us that we breath out. Carbon dioxide doesn't make the balloon float in the air, while Helium does.
why do air ballons fly?
If it's a normal balloon like the one you'd see at a birthday, it's because it's filled with helium which is lighter than the air around us (it's hard to imagine air has weight, but it does at a molecular level). If you're talking about a hot air balloon, it floats because the air in the balloon is hotter than the air around it, and heat rises (again due to molecular-level activity). Hope that helps!
What happens to balloon after being in the freezer for a few hours?
That would depend on whether the balloon was empty, full of air or full of water and as you have not told us which we can not help you. When asking questions please make them specific if you want us to help.
How do air particles create air pressure inside a balloon?
Air particles inside a balloon collide with the walls of the balloon, creating a force that is evenly distributed on all sides, which results in air pressure. The more particles there are inside the balloon, the greater the number of collisions, and thus the higher the air pressure.
When was the air conditioner invented?
W.H. Carrier invented the air conditioner in the US in 1902.
