Two balloons of the same volume are filled at the same pressure and temperature, one with hydrogen and the other with helium. Which has the greater buoyancy, and what is the ratio of the two buoyant forces?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Buoyant force equals the weight of the displaced air,

. Both balloons have the same volume, so the force is the

same. Ratio 1 : 1. (The lifting power differs only through the weight of

the gas inside.) C.
