Yes, helium has been used in blimps as a lifting gas. Helium is less dense than air, which allows it to provide buoyancy and help the blimps stay afloat. However, today, most blimps use a combination of helium for lift and air for control and propulsion.
What is doubtless the most common use of helium by the elderly is the getting and giving of helium balloons. "Older" people don't do a lot of mixed gas diving, inert gas welding or other activities like that.
Helium is sometimes used in deep breathing systems as a gas mixture to help improve lung function. When helium is inhaled, it can reduce airway resistance and increase the flow of oxygen to the lungs, which can be beneficial for people with certain respiratory conditions.
Helium is used in airplane tires because it is lighter than air, so it reduces the overall weight of the tires and the wheel assemblies. This can result in fuel savings due to decreased weight of the aircraft. Additionally, helium is less likely to leak out of the tires compared to other gases, helping to maintain tire pressure for longer periods.
Helium is lighter than air, providing lift for airships. Carbon dioxide is denser than air, so it would not provide the necessary buoyancy. Additionally, helium is non-combustible, making it a safer choice for aviation.
Yes, helium will help a balloon fly. Helium does not affect the direction that a balloon goes, but it will keep it in the air for quite some time.
Helium is lighter than air. So balloons or blimps filled with helium will rise up and float.

Puffins help people by being good indicators of when we are over fishing the oceans. When puffins bring home less fish for their young, it indicates fish populations are dwindling.

I did an experiment, where a Plant was in a vacuum filled with helium and it died after 3 or 4 days after sprouting. I'm not sure about Oxygen, Carbon Dioxide + Helium though
Alternative energy resources that could help mitigate the impact of dwindling petroleum supplies include solar, wind, and hydropower. These renewable energy sources are sustainable and can help reduce dependency on finite fossil fuels. Additionally, advancements in battery technology and electric vehicles can also contribute to reducing reliance on petroleum for transportation.
You don't MAKE Helium, it's a natural gas. Helium was discovered in 1895 by Sir William Ramsay. glad to help, and remember that not all element are man-made!
Helium is lighter than air, hence it will rise up in air, making things float up in the air.
Helium
we can know where the element is .
