The mass of a hot-air balloon and its cargo (not including the air inside) is 170 kg. The air outside is at 10.0°C and 101 kPa.

The volume of the balloon is 530 m3. To what temperature must the air in the balloon be warmed before the balloon will lift off? (Air density at 10.0°C is 1.244 kg/m3.)

Answer:

108.37°C

Explanation:

P₁ = Initial pressure = 101 kPa

V₁ = Initial volume = 530 m³

T₁ = Initial temperature = 10°C = 10+273.15 =283.15 K

P₂ = Final pressure = 101 kPa (because it is open to atmosphere)

V₂ = Final volume = 530 m³

P₁V₁ = n₁RT₁

⇒101×530 = n₁RT₁

⇒53530 J = n₁RT₁

P₂V₂ = n₂RT₂

⇒53530 J = n₂RT₂

\frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{\rho V_1}{\rho V_1-170}\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_1}{m_2}=\frac{1.244\times 530}{1.244\times 530-170}=1.347\\\Rightarrow \frac{m_1}{m_2}=1.347\\\Rightarrow \frac{n_1}{n_2}=1.347

Dividing the first two equations we get

1=\frac{n_1}{n_2}\frac{T_1}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow 1=1.347\frac{283.15}{T_2}\\\Rightarrow T_2=1.347\times 283.15= 381.52\ K

∴Temperature must the air in the balloon be warmed before the balloon will lift off is 381.25-273.15 = 108.37°C

Answer:

137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts

Explanation:

The formula for power is P= dhrg

Where P = Power in watts

d = density of water (1000 kg/m^3)

h = height in meters

r = flow rate in cubic meters per second,

g = acceleration due to gravity of 9.8 m/s^2,

Plugging in the known values,

we get

P = 1000 kg/m^3 * 80 m * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 80000 kg/m^2 * 175 m^3/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 14000000 kg m/s * 9.8 m/s^2

P = 137200000 kg m^2/s^3

P = 137200000 watts or 137200 kilowatts

The above figure assumes 100% efficiency which is impossible. A good efficiency would be 90% so the actual power available would be close to 0.90 * 137200 = 123480 kilowatts
