    The Effect of Temperature on Buoyant Forces

    Thank you haruspex for your response, I see what you mean. I was fixated on 1.2 kg/m3 as a constant value. Now I think about it, it is the other way around (that is the air heated inside the balloon will have the same density on whatever day since the temperature given by the fire is the...

    The Effect of Temperature on Buoyant Forces

    Hi, I came across this question in a physics review pamphlet: Homework Statement A balloon for a county fair is designed to carry four 100-kg passengers when it is expanded to its maximum volume. The designers assumed the balloon would operate in ordinary spring temperatures. If, on...

    How Do You Apply the Washer Method for Calculating Volumes of Revolution?

    I tried to solve these problems in a different way but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track. If it revolved over the x-axis then the volume will be integral (0,4) Pi (2)^2 - (root (x))^2 dx = 42.265 units^3 If it revolved over the y-axis then the volume will be integral (0,2) Pi (y)^2 - 0...
