Pay load is defined as the difference between the mass of displaced air and the mass of the balloon. Calculate the pay load when a balloon of radius 10 m, mass 100 kg is filled with helium at 1.66 bar at 27°C. (Density of air = 1.2 kg and R = 0.083 bar ).

Answer»

of the balloon = mass of the DISPLACED air - mass of the balloon Radius of the balloon, r = 10 m Mass of the balloon, m = 100 kg Therefore, volume of the balloon ==Now the volume of the displaced air =From the given, Density of air = Therefore, mass of the displaced air = Let w be the mass of HELIUM GAS FILLED into the balloon, Then, pv = RT Or Total mass of the balloon filled with He = 1117 + 100 = 1217 kg Therefore PAYLOAD of the balloon = 5028.6 - 1217 = 3811.6 kg Hence, the payload of the balloon is 3811.6 kg
