The balloon Spirit of Freedom, flown around the world by American Steve Fossett in 2002, contained 550,000 cubic feet of helium.

How much PΔV work was done by the balloon on the surrounding atmosphere, assuming atmospheric pressure was 1.00 atm while the balloon was being inflated?

Assuming the balloon initially has volume of 0 when deflated, the total P(deltaV) = (1.00 atm)(550,000 ft^3) = 550,000 atm-ft^3. To convert into work units, we can first convert ft^3 to L:
(550,000 atm-ft^3)(1 m/3.28 ft)^3
= (15,586.2 atm-m^3)
Then we convert to L:
(15,586.2 atm-m^3)(1000 L/m^3)
= 15,586,200 atm-L
Then we convert to J:
(15,586,200 atm-L)(101.325 J / 1 atm-L)
= 1.579 x 10^9 J

Why does it smell like burning when i turn my heat on?
ycow [4]

Answer: If you smell a dusty or burning smell the first few times you turn on your heat, it’s most likely dust and dirt that’s settled on components inside your heating system throughout the summer. As you fire up the heat, those dust particles burn away, producing a weird burnt/dusty smell.

Take a cup of water, add sugar, and stir. if the resulting solution contains sugar crystals that do not dissolve, the solution i
Strike441 [17]
When a solvent has as much of the dilute dissolved in it as possible, then it is saturated.

If you were to heat the water, its capacity would increase and would then be super-saturated because it has more dissolved in it than possible as room temp.

Since there is no heating being done, the water is just saturated.

Hope that helps!
