High enough, until it gets popped. So it can fly up forever. Unless, of course a bird flies into it, popping and sending it back to Earth.

It will fly as high as it can until it runs out of air, or if it runs into a power line because when it runs into a power line, the current electricity will cause it to pop. There are also different reasons why the balloon will pop.

The higher the balloon goes, the lower the atmospheric pressure will be, so the balloon will expand as if helium were being added. When it expands far enough, it will pop.

Why do you have to hang onto your helium balloon?

Helium is lighter than air, so it makes the balloon float. If you let go of the balloon, it will float up into the atmosphere because of the difference in density between the helium inside the balloon and the air outside.


How many uses does helium have?

Two are long distance balloon traveling and making people's voices go high.


What is an object with small mass and high capacity?

A hydrogen balloon, or for safety's sake, a helium balloon.


Is inside balloon solid liquid or a gas?

Inside a balloon there is gas. This gas is normally helium if you want the balloon to fly high, but hydrogen also works.


What makes an helium balloon go up and what makes an helium balloon go down?

a helium balloon is forced upward by buoyancy. a object is forced upward by a force equal to the weight of the fluid it displaces. this also applies to gases. the gas helium is lighter than average atmospheric air, that is that equal volumes of atmospheric air and helium do not weigh the same. This means that the volume displaced by the balloon is heavier than the balloon itself. since the air weighs more it applies more force upwards on the balloon than the balloon applies downwards on the air, therefore it rises. However, a helium balloon will not go down unless a force such as large air resistance (heavy wind etc.) is applied to it. hope this helps.


How much can a helium balloon lift?

depends how big the helium balloon is and how many


Why does a balloon filled with helium rise with a balloon filled with an equal volume of average atmospheric air does not?

Helium is less dense than air, so a balloon filled with helium is lighter than the same volume of air. This buoyancy force allows the helium-filled balloon to rise. On the other hand, a balloon filled with air has the same density as the surrounding air, so there is no buoyant force to make it rise.


What was the helium balloon balloon made of?

It was made out of the light gas gas Helium.


Why does a helium balloon float into the sky when you let go?

Helium is lighter than air, therefore it rises upwards.


What is the answer for it already has helium but what is it?

The object that already has helium is most likely a helium-filled balloon. Helium is used to inflate balloons as it is lighter than air, causing the balloon to float.


What makes a child's balloon rise?

Helium. The helium gas in the balloon is lighter than the air outside the balloon.


Which balloon would fly higher the one with helium or the one with air?

The balloon with helium.
