It should float up. Air is less dense than water, so it will float.

What happens when you drop a balloon?

When you drop a balloon, gravity pulls it down towards the ground. As it falls, the air inside the balloon is pushed out through the opening, causing the balloon to deflate and eventually land on the ground.


What happens when you release a balloon with air in it?

When you release a balloon with air in it, the air inside the balloon is pushed out, causing the balloon to fly through the air. This happens because the air being forced out creates a force in the opposite direction, propelling the balloon forward.


What force made the balloon move?

The balloon moved because of the force of the air being pushed out of the balloon by the person blowing into it. This force creates pressure inside the balloon, causing it to expand and eventually move in the opposite direction of the air flow.


How can you stick a stick through a balloon?

You can stick a stick through a balloon by first inserting the stick through an uninflated balloon, then inflating the balloon while holding the stick in place to prevent it from puncturing the balloon. This creates an illusion that the stick has been pushed through the balloon.


If you push on the sides of a filled balloon how does the pressure inside change?

If the balloon is not encased or in restricted volume, then it changes its shape to accomodate that push but prutruding on the other side and the pressure remain same. However, if there is restriction for shape change, then when you push on the balloon, the volume decreases and therefore the pressure increases. A practical balloon, by the way, will behave between these two extremes. Pushing on one side and causing it to change shape definitely results in an increase in internal pressure. This is because the elasticity/tension of the rubber is the encased space.

What happened when you pushed up the streched balloon?

Of course, it will not crack easily. After you pushed it up it, it will just go back to its normal shape.


How does a balloon-powered race car apply to newtons laws of motion?

A balloon powered car is moves because the balloon pushes out air. Whenever something exerts a force on something else (in other words, the balloon is exerting force on the air), then the object being pushed always exerts an equal and opposite reaction force on the object exerting force on it (in other words, the air exerts force on the balloon). Because the balloon is attached to the car, when the balloon is pushed by the air, the car is pushed. The law that for every force there is an equal and opposite reaction force is Newton's Third Law of Motion.


Explanation of blowing up balloon with carbon dioxide?

As the gas is pushed into the balloon the internal pressure increases, to reduce this pressure the rubbery material expands to increase the volume and ultimately reduce the pressure. Once the balloon is filled with CO2 and the knot is tied the balloon will probably sink this is because CO2 is more dense than air.

What has greater acceleration when it gets pushed a volleyball or a balloon?

A balloon typically has greater acceleration than a volleyball when both are pushed with the same force. This is because the balloon has a much lower mass than the volleyball, according to Newton's second law of motion (F = ma). Since acceleration is inversely proportional to mass when force is constant, the lighter balloon will accelerate more.


A balloon is weighted so that it is barely able to float in water. What will happen if it is pushed beneath the surface?

It sinks. By pressing it under the water, the water pressure on the balloon increases slightly and compresses the air in the balloon. This increases the density of the (balloon, weight) combo so that is more dense than water, hence it sinks. High altitude weather balloons are only inflated partway with helium when they are launched from the ground. The envelope of the balloon expands as it rises in the atmosphere.


Why does a helium balloon go up?

A helium balloon floats because helium gas is lighter than air. By filling a balloon with helium, the balloon also becomes lighter than air. The helium balloon floats for the same reason that objects float on water: objects less dense than water are pushed up by buoyant forces equal to the weight of water displaced by that object. What happens in water also happens in air, and the helium balloon is pushed upwards by a force equal to the weight of air it displaces.
