Answer:

Mass = volume * density

tables show air = 1.293 g / L and He = .178 g / L

Each balloon would have a lifting power (using mass) of

(1.293 - .178) = 1.115 g / L = 1.115 kg / m^3

Note there are 1000 g in a kg and 1000 L in a m^3

V (balloon) = 4/3 pi .15^3 = .0141 m^3

Each balloon can lift .0141 m^3 * 1.115 kg/m^3 = .0158 kg

Or 63.4 balloons can lift 1 kg

To lift 75 kg requires 63.4 * 75 = 4760 balloons

Elis [28]
The answer is B.
She can measure the mass of the water, marble and the graduated cylinder with the balance.
The volume of the water can be shown on the marked graduated cylinder, the volume of the marble can be measured by the volume difference of the water before and after the marble is put in.

Which element has the strongest attraction for electrons
Alex787 [66]

If one atom is overwhelmingly more electronegative than the other atom, the electrons will not be shared and an ionic bond will result. The periodic table below shows the Pauling electronegativity scale. A value of 4.0 is assigned to FLORINE, the most electronegative element.

A battery charger is connected to a dead battery and delivers a current of 3.5 a for 4 hours, keeping the voltage across the bat
oksano4ka [1.4K]
The power delivered is equal to the product between the voltage V and the current I:
P=VI=(16 V)(3.5 A)=56 W

This power is delivered for a total time of t=4h=4 \cdot 3600 s = 14400 s, so the total energy delivered to the battery is
E=Pt = (56 W)(14400 s)=806400 J=806.4 kJ

True or False: The energy increase of an object acted on only by a gravitational force is equal to the product of the object's w
tamaranim1 [39]

Answer:

False.

Explanation:

The statement shown in the question above is false and this can be confirmed by Newton's law on universal gravitation. According to Newton, the gravitational force exerted on any body is proportional to its weight, but the distance that the object travels when falling is disproportionate. In addition, if the force resulting from the weight of the object and its displacement has an angle of 0º, the weight force of that object will provide an increase in kinetic energy.
