Storms are extremely hazardous for hot air balloons, because of the danger of a lightning strike. Even rain is a problem, because it decreases visibility and damages the balloon material (of course, it's not much fun to fly around in wet weather anyway). And while you need a nice wind ...
Superchargers do not suffer lag – a term used to describe how much time passes between the driver depressing the gas pedal and the engine's response. Turbochargers suffer from lag because it takes a few moments before the exhaust gases reach a velocity sufficient to drive the turbine. Supercha...

Calculate how much faster helium effuses compared to nitrogen gas. Graham's Law of Effusion: Graham's law of effusion states that the rate at which two different gases effuses depends on the density as well as the molecular weight of the gas. The rate of effusion is inversely proportional ...
We suggest tying the string very securely around the PVC pipe, scooting it down so that the helium-filled balloons blend in with the non-helium balloons, and taping the string in place with several layers of clear packing tape. It was so much fun to work withSaraandDawnon this gorgeous ...
