HARD
A hot air balloon with a payload rises in the air. Assume that the balloon is spherical in shape with diameter of 11.7 m and the mass of the ballon and the payload (without the hot air inside) is 210 kg Temperature and pressure of outside air are 27°C and 1 atm =105 N/m2, respectively. Molar mass of dry air is 30 g. The temperature of the hot air inside is close to [The gas constant, R=831JK-1 mol-1 ]
