On october 21, 2001, ian ashpole of the united kingdom achieved a record altitude of 3.35 km (11 000 ft) powered by 600 toy balloons filled with helium. each filled balloon had a radius of about 0.50 m and an estimated mass of 0.30 kg. (a) estimate the total buoyant force on the 600 balloons. (b) estimate the net upward force on all 600 balloons. (c) ashpole parachuted to the earth after the balloons began to burst at the high altitude and the buoyant force decreased. why did the balloons burst?

3698.28287 N

1932.48287 N

Explanation:

= Density of air = 1.2 kg/m³

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 m/s²

v = Volume of air in balloon =

r = Radius of balloon = 0.5 m

The buoyant force is given by

The buoyant force generated by the balloons is 3975.65408 N

The net force would be

The net upward force on the balloon is 2209.85408 N

As the balloons gain altitude the outside pressure starts decreasing and the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the balloon becomes significant. This causes the balloon to burst.

answer; how far out of place which the object finished relative to the starting location;

get the total number of pieces of fruit and divide it by 4 to get the average. the result is the answer to the problem. 14 total number of fruits and there are 4 members. 14 divided by 4 is equals to 3.5.
