well when the pressure get to much inside the membrane (ballon) burst. The pressure get to much when someone sits on it for example. Another reason it pops is because of a puncture in the ballon (a needle)
It goes into the air becoming more and more dilute. As a free gas the helium does not rise as it did when contained in the balloon. The Earth's atmosphere contains 5.24 ppmv (0.000524%) Helium, mixed...
Air or helium is a gas that is contained in a latex envelope. Since the balloon is a finite space, when you sit on it you strain the latex beyond it's capabilities. Just like a seam in your clothes,...
Because of the pressure in the higher atmosphere is much lower than the pressure where it was filled. This causes the pressure inside to expand the balloon up to and past the bursting point. Most...
This is because there is always the same amount of air inside the balloon, providing the same amount of outwards force. Here on the ground, that outwards force is balanced by the air outside the...
