What is the buoyant force on a helium balloon in air if the balloon is spherical with diameter 18.0 cm ?
density of air = 1.293 kg/m3 , volume of helium
balloon =4/3r3
=4/3*3.14*(0.09)3= 0.034 m3
buoyant force on a helium balloon in air =density of air * volume
of helium balloon*g
=1.293*0.034*9.8= 0.43 N
