You are given a volume and two different densities. What is the weight of the balloon filled with hot air versus cool air?Funny_N_Cool said:
Given that the solution is utterly trivial, I'm quite confident that he can, but you are missing the point. The purpose of this forum is to help people learn how to solve problems, not to solve problems FOR them. You have been given sufficient hints, so think about it.Funny_N_Cool said:

I misspoke. I should have said what is the mass of the air inside the balloon? The total mass lifted will be the mass of the empty balloon plus the added load. The sum of these is the total mass lifted. Any clearer?Funny_N_Cool said:
This is the correct direction to take.Funny_N_Cool said:

The lifting capacity of a balloon is determined by the amount of gas or helium it contains. The more gas or helium inside the balloon, the more buoyant force it will have, and the more weight it can lift.
The lifting capacity of a balloon is affected by several factors, including the size and shape of the balloon, the type and amount of gas or helium inside, and the surrounding temperature and air pressure.
No, a balloon can only lift a certain amount of weight based on its lifting capacity. Once it reaches its maximum lifting capacity, it will not be able to lift any additional weight.
The amount of weight a balloon can lift varies depending on its size, shape, and the amount of gas or helium inside. On average, a standard 3-foot balloon filled with helium can lift about 1-2 grams of weight.
Yes, multiple balloons can be used to lift heavier objects. By distributing the weight among several balloons, the combined lifting capacity can be increased. However, there will still be a limit to how much weight can be lifted based on the individual lifting capacity of each balloon.
