How does a big heavy balloon with a basket full of people manage to float in the air

Open in App
Solution

This big heavy balloon is actually called Hot-air balloon.
Hot-air balloons float because the air trapped inside the balloon is heated up by a burner. This makes it less denser than the air outside.
That is density of air inside balloon is less than outside air. Less density substance can easily float in air.
Thats why hot air balloon float in air.
