What is the difference between flying a hot air balloon and an airplane?
A hot-air balloon is a lighter-than-air aircraft consisting of a bag, called an envelope, which contains heated air. The heated air inside the envelope makes it buoyant, since it has a lower density than the colder air outside the envelope. As with all aircraft, hot-air balloons cannot fly beyond the atmosphere.
Is a balloon an aircraft?
A balloon is a lighter-than-air aircraft that is not engine driven, and that sustains flight through the use of either gas buoyancy or an airborne heater.
What happens to balloons on airplanes?
Comments for Balloons in Luggage Area of a Plane As cold air shrinks, the balloon will deflate. On the other hand, air pressure will be lower in the plane than where you inflated your balloon, as it is pressurized to the conditions you would have in about 8000 feet above sea level.
What are the similarities between bird and airplane shape?
People have looked up at birds for years and they have inspired us to fly. Airplanes have wings, just like birds. They also have a light skeleton (or framework) to decrease their weight, and they have a streamlined shape to decrease drag. The big difference is that airplanes do not flap their wings.
How long can a hot air balloon stay in the air?
A: Hot air balloons stay in the air for as long as they can keep their air hot, so as long as they have fuel to burn. Usually, a ride in a hot air balloon can last around four hours.
