A helium balloon had a volume of 1.50 m when it was filled at an altitude where the atmospheric pressure was 775 hPa. What was the atmospheric pressure of the balloon, in hPa, at an altitude where its volume was 1.2 m3?
A hot-air balloon has a volume of 2,387 m3. The density of the air outside the balloon is 1.176 kg/m3, and the density of the hot air inside is 0.887 kg/m3. How much weight can the balloon lift?
If the balloon had a volume of 2 L at a depth of 50 m, what was the original volume of the balloon if we assume the pressure at the surface of the water is 14.7psi ?
