Definitely a dirigible because a hot air balloon cannot be steered because the wind carries it. A dirigible is an air ship and has control systems.

Can you steer a balloon or a dirigible?

While balloons are at the mercy of the wind and cannot be steered, dirigibles (or airships) have engines and rudders that allow for controlled navigation and steering. Dirigibles can ascend and descend by adjusting their buoyancy and use their propulsion systems to move in different directions.


What is the difference between a hot air balloon and a gas balloon?

A hot air balloon uses heated air to generate lift, while a gas balloon uses a lighter-than-air gas, such as helium or hydrogen. Hot air balloons are propelled by wind currents, while gas balloons can be steered to some extent using ballast and vents. However, gas balloons typically have longer flight durations compared to hot air balloons.


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.


Why does a balloon and the balloon with air weigh the same?

A balloon has a certain weight due to the material it's made of. When you blow air into the balloon, the weight of the air inside balances out the weight of the balloon material, making the total weight of the balloon and air the same as the original balloon.


What does a balloon do when heated?

the heat makes the molecules inside the balloon travel faster, pushing outward on the balloon. This, the balloon expands when heated

Which can be steered a balloon or a dirigible?

A dirigible can be steered as it is a powered, steerable airship with engines and controls. A balloon, on the other hand, is unpowered and moves with the wind, making it unable to be steered in a specific direction.

What year was the Dirigible invented?

An airship or dirigible is a "lighter-than-air aircraft" that can be steered and propelled through the air using rudders and propellers or other thrust.The father of the dirigible was Lieutenant Jean Baptiste Marie Meusnier (1754-93). On 3 December 1783, he presented a historic paper to the French Academy: "Memoire sur l'equilbre des Machines Aerostatique" (Memorandum on the balance of aerostatic machines).In 1784, Jean-Pierre Blanchard fitted a hand-powered propeller to a balloon, the first recorded means of propulsion carried aloft


What goes up when you let go of it?

More than likely a Helium filled balloon. A Hydrogen filled balloon is very flammable and might burst into flames similar to the Hindenburg blimp/dirigible. Helium is not flammable.
