Volume of plastic balloon= 15 m3 Mass of empty balloon = 7.15 kg Density of hydrogen=0.09 kgm-3 Density of AIR= 1.3 kgm 3 (i) Mass of hydrogen in the balloon= Volume of balloon X Density of hydrogen Mass of hydrogen in the balloon= (15 x 0.09)kg = 1.35kg (ii) Mass of hydrogen and balloon Mass of empty balloon + Mass of hydrogen in the balloon Mass of hydrogen balloon = [7.15+ 1.35) = kg = 8.5 kg (iii) GIVEN mass of equipment= x Total mass of hydrogen, balloon and equipment = (8.5+ x) kg (iv) WEIGHT of air displaced by the balloon = upthrust = Volume of balloon x density of air x g Mass of air displaced= Volume of balloon x density of air = 15 x 1.3 = 19.5 kg (v) Using the law of floatation, Mass of air displaced 3 Total mass of hydrogen, balloon and equipment or, 19.5 = 8.5 + x or, x=11 kg Thus, mass of the equipment 11 kg |
