A large helium filled balloon is used as the center piece for a graduation party. The balloon alone has a mass of 222 kg and it

is filled with helium gas until its volume is 328 m3. Assume the density of air is 1.20 kg/m3 and the density of helium is 0.179 kg/m3. Calculate the buoyant force acting on the balloon.

Answer:

The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of balloon = 222 Kg

Volume = 328 m³

Density of air = 1.20 kg/m³

Density of helium = 0.179 kg/m³

We need to calculate the buoyant force acting

Using formula of buoyant force

F_{b}=\rho_{air}\times V_{b}\times g

Where, \rho_{air} = density of air

V = Volume of balloon

g = acceleration due to gravity

Put the value into the formula

F_{b}=1.20\times321\times9.81

F_{b}=3778.8\ N

This buoyant force is in upward direction.

Hence, The buoyant force is 3778.8 N in upward.

How much speed is needed for an object to travel 250 km in 1.5 hrs? *<br> Your answer
NemiM [27]

Answer: 166.67km/hr

Explanation:

Given the following :

Distance traveled = 250km

Time taken = 1.5 hours

Recall :

Speed = Distance traveled / time taken

Speed = 250 km / 1.5 hours

Speed = 166. 67 km/hr

Speed in m/s:

166.67km/hr = (166.67 × 1000)m / 3600 s

= 166670m / 3600s

= 46.3m/s

Explain why a golf ball has a higher density than a ping pong ball, even though they are similar in size and shape.
Andrej [43]

Answer:

The ping pong ball is hollow.

Explanation:

Since a ping pong ball, unlike the golf ball, is only filled with air, it is less dense. Air is notably LESS dense than solids, which is what comprises the inside of a golf ball.
