Why Does An Air Balloon Drop To The Ground?
Depends. IF you mean BALLOON then the following is the answer If it is a small cold air balloon gravity simply pulls it down as it is denser than the surrounding air (ie. it weighs more for the space it take up then the surrounding air it displaces). If it is a hot air balloon then the hot air has expanded so as to displace the heavier cold air inside and around the balloon and now being less dense than the surrounding air it simply floats upwards defeating gravity (the reality is that the balloon only appears to rise - what actually happens is that the colder air falls around the hot air). Once the hot air cools the balloon shrinks in size displacing less cold air around it and it is now denser than the surrounding air and gravity takes over and the balloon is pulled toward the earth (commonly called "down") IF you really meant a guy named Ballon he was a German ballet dancer and probably tripped IF you mean a Balloon flask as used in Chemical procedures to catch the drippings of distillation then some one only has to knock it off the bench. IF you mean the village of Ballon it is already ground. Although the air in the balloon is the same density as the air outside, the rubber weighs it down pulling it to the ground. This doesn't happen with helium balloons because they are so much less dense than air that they can carry the plastic.
What is the formula for ground speed?
The distance traveled divided by the time it took in minutes
A hot air balloon is flying 500 feet from where your standing April is 275 feet away from you what is the distance between the hot air balloon and April?
Depends on 2 things. 1. The height of the balloon. The higher it is, the greater the distance between April and the balloon. 2. The direction of both in relation to you. Presuming the balloon is at ground level, if both are in the same direction, then the distance between them is 500 minus 275 ft. If they are in opposite directions then the distance is 500 plus 275 ft. If they are in varying directions the answer could be anything between these two results.
How long would it take a water balloon to drop 200 feet?
if you ignore air resistance, it would take about 3.5 seconds; at ttat point where it hits the ground it is traveling at 75 mph. Because of the air drag, it may take a bit longer to hit the ground.
What walks backwards every three minutes?
someone that keeps finding pennys on the ground and then relized that the person in front of him/her has a hole in his/her pocket
What is the weight of an empty balloon?
There is no weight in an empty balloon. Empty balloons will not stay on the ground long enough to have any real weight.
How do air balloons lift off from the ground?
Balloons filled with Helium rise because Helium is less dense than normal air. Hot air balloons lift off the ground because heat rises, and when the balloon is full of air of a higher temperature than its surroundings, the balloon will rise.
How long can a weather balloon stay in the air before it descends back to the ground?
A weather balloon can stay in the air for several hours to a few days before descending back to the ground. The exact duration depends on factors such as the size of the balloon, the altitude it reaches, and weather conditions.
How do hot air balloons return to the ground?
Hot air balloons descend by gradually releasing hot air from the envelope. The pilot controls the descent by manipulating the amount of hot air in the envelope and finding a suitable landing spot. When the balloon reaches the desired altitude for landing, the pilot will release all the remaining hot air and bring the balloon gently back to the ground.
How are hot air balloons work?
Hot air balloons work by heating the air inside the balloon with a burner, which causes the balloon to become buoyant and lift off the ground. The hot air inside the balloon is lighter than the cooler air outside, creating a pressure difference that allows the balloon to float. By controlling the temperature of the air inside the balloon, the pilot can ascend or descend to navigate the balloon.
What element is used in a hot air balloon?
Hot air balloons typically use propane gas as a fuel source to heat the air inside the balloon envelope, causing it to rise and lift the balloon off the ground.
Can a bow and arrow pop a hot air balloon?
Not really, only small balloons will "pop". Hot air balloons that are large enough to carry people will lose air ( & lift) when the balloon is penetrated or torn. The balloon will lose its ability to stay up in the air.AnswerIt's highly unlikely that an arrow would reach a hot air balloon unless it were very close to the ground
When the balloon is up in the air the burner is turned off and the balloon drifts along with the wind What will eventually happen to the air inside the balloon?
As the balloon cools down, the air inside will also cool. This will cause the air pressure inside the balloon to decrease, potentially leading to the balloon descending back to the ground due to the decreased pressure.
Why don't normal balloons stay in the sky?
Due to the weight of the balloon. A balloon is merely a capsule full of air so it will fall to the ground as the balloon weighs it down. A helium balloon will rise into the air because helium is less dense than normal air (i.e. it weighs less). The air inside the balloon is the same density as the air outside. The balloon material itself is heavier than air, which causes the balloon to sink. If you decrease the density of the trapped air, such as by heating it or replacing it with hydrogen or helium, the balloon may become even lighter than the balloon material and an equal volume of normal air, in which case the balloon will float or rise.
Why air balloon come down after some time?
Hot air balloons come down after some time because the air inside the balloon cools down. As the air cools, it becomes denser than the surrounding air, causing the balloon to descend back to the ground. Pilots can control the descent rate by adjusting the temperature of the air inside the balloon.
How do hot air balloons descend?
Hot air balloons descend by releasing hot air from the balloon envelope, causing it to cool down and become denser. This decrease in density causes the balloon to descend slowly until it reaches the ground. Pilots control the rate of descent by manipulating the amount of heat in the balloon.
What causes a balloon to fall to the ground?
It's very simple to see the answer. Balloons have a certain type of air pressure and because it is greater than the air around it, it climbs. However, when the air pressure in a balloon is less than the air pressure outside the balloon, the the balloon will start to descend.
