Problem : A conducting metal balloon of Radius ' R ', essentially of negligible mass is charged with charge ' Q '. It has to carry a payload of mass ' M '. Find how the charge ' Q ' depends on the mass M and the Intrinsic Energy ' W ' of the balloon.
Attempt:
We have [itex]P_{atm} = \frac{σ^{2}}{2ε_0}[/itex] for the balloon to sustain the charge on it. W is also known. Now by Archimedes Principle, the Force of buoyancy is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon which is [itex]F_b = \frac{4}{3} π R^3 \ge Mg [/itex].
But How does the charge and the Energy W influence the motion. Kindly suggest me. I do not need computation help.
