Solar Ballon is designed to trap solar energy using an inflatable plastic thin film ballon called a solar concentrator. It can trap 500 watt to 1 kilowatt of solar energy.

What hapens when a hot air balloon inflates?

It all depends on the rate the balloon loses heat, which in turn depends on the size of the balloon, the weight of the balloon, the insulation and porosity properties of the balloon fabric, and the amount of solar heating, if any, that it receives. THough, when the air heats the molecules are literally expanding and thus filling the vacancy of the balloon! This is due to the effect of physical conditions that molecules undergo.


How long can a balloon stay in the air when it is inflated with hot air?

I presume you mean without an airborne heater. The answer is, there is no fixed time! It could range from a few minutes to the best part of a day. It all depends on the rate the balloon loses heat, which in turn depends on the size of the balloon, the weight of the balloon, the insulation and porosity properties of the balloon fabric, and the amount of solar heating, if any, that it receives.

What would happen to an inflated balloon left outside in the sun for 1 hour?

An inflated balloon left outside in the sun for an hour would likely experience an increase in internal temperature as the air inside heats up due to solar radiation. This could cause the air to expand, potentially leading to the balloon becoming larger and more stretched. If the temperature rises sufficiently, the balloon might reach its elastic limit and risk popping. Additionally, prolonged exposure to UV rays could weaken the balloon material, increasing the likelihood of rupture.


How can you toast marshmallows using a wire aluminum foil a deflated spherical balloon sunlight Answer this using the science of optics?

To toast marshmallows using sunlight, you can create a makeshift solar concentrator with a deflated spherical balloon and aluminum foil. By covering the balloon with the foil, you can form a reflective surface that focuses sunlight onto a single point, effectively concentrating the solar energy. Position the marshmallow at the focal point of the reflected sunlight; the concentrated heat will toast the marshmallow. This process utilizes the principles of optics, specifically reflection and focal points, to harness sunlight for cooking.

A balloon payment calculator is not actually in the shape of a balloon. It is used to calculate a balloon payment; it is called a balloon payment because of its size.

What would happen if a charged balloon touched a neutral balloon?

If a charged balloon touched a neutral balloon, electrons from the charged balloon would be transferred to the neutral balloon, causing the neutral balloon to become negatively charged. This is due to the principle of electrostatic induction.
