A spherical balloon is made from a material whose mass is 3.30 kg. The thickness of the material is negligible compared to the 1

.25 m radius of the balloon. The balloon is filled with helium (He) at a temperature of 345 K and just floats in air, neither rising nor falling. The density of the surrounding air is 1.19 kg/m³ and the molar mass of helium is 4.0026×10-3 kg/mol. Find the absolute pressure of the helium gas.

Answer:

563712.04903 Pa

Explanation:

m = Mass of material = 3.3 kg

r = Radius of sphere = 1.25 m

v = Volume of balloon = \frac{4}{3}\pi r^3

M = Molar mass of helium = 4.0026\times 10^{-3}\ kg/mol

\rho = Density of surrounding air = 1.19\ kg/m^3

R = Gas constant = 8.314 J/mol K

T = Temperature = 345 K

Weight of balloon + Weight of helium = Weight of air displaced

mg+m_{He}g=\rho vg\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=\rho vg-m\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=1.19\times \frac{4}{3}\pi 1.25^3-3.3\\\Rightarrow m_{He}=6.4356\ kg

Mass of helium is 6.4356 kg

Moles of helium

n=\frac{m}{M}\\\Rightarrow n=\frac{6.4356}{4.0026\times 10^{-3}}\\\Rightarrow n=1607.85489

Ideal gas law

P=\frac{nRT}{v}\\\Rightarrow P=\frac{1607.85489\times 8.314\times 345}{\frac{4}{3}\pi 1.25^3}\\\Rightarrow P=563712.04903\ Pa

The absolute pressure of the Helium gas is 563712.04903 Pa

Seema knows the mass of basketball. What other information is needed to find the balls potential energy
Lelu [443]

Answer: The height (position) of the ball and the acceleration due gravity

Explanation:

In this case we are taking about gravitational potential energy, which is the energy a body or object possesses, due to its position in a gravitational field.  In this sense, this energy depends on the relative height of an object with respect to some point of reference and associated with the gravitational force.  

In the case of the Earth, in which the gravitational field is considered constant, the gravitational potential energy U will be:  

U=mgh  

Where:

m is the mass of the ball

g=9.8 m/s^{2} is the acceleration due gravity (assuming the ball is on the Earth surface)

h is the height (position) of the ball respect to a given point

Note the value of the gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to the height.
