5.16. Pay load is defined as the difference between the mass of the displaced air and the mass of the balloon. Calculate the pay load when a balloon of radius 10 m, mass 100 kg is filled with helium at 1.66 bar at 27°C (Density of air = 1.2 kg m-3 and R = 0.083 bar dm3 K-1 mol-1).

5.16. Radius of the balloon = 10 m
Therefore, volume of the balloon = (4/3)? r3 = (4/3) x (22/7) x (10 m)3
= 4190.5 m3
Volume of He filled at 1.66 bar and 27 °C = 4290.5 m3
To calculate the mass of He,
PV = nRT = (w/M) RT, where M is molar mass of He i.e. 4 g per mole or 4 x 10-3 kg mol-1
=> w = [ (4 x 10-3 kg mol-1) (1.66 bar) (4190.5 m3)] / [ (0.083 bar dm3 K-1 mol-1) (300K)]
= 1117.5 kg
Total mass of the balloon along with He = 100 + 1117.5 = 1217.5 kg
Maximum mass of the air that can be displaced by balloon to go up = volume x density
= 4190.5 m3 x 1.2 kg m-3 = 5028.6 kg
