A weather balloon near sea level (101,377 Pa, 298.56 K) has a volume of 270.83 ft3 (cubed). If it is launched and ascends to a height of 105,200 feet (857.06 Pa, 227.85 K) before bursting. What was its final volume, in feet cubed?
Final volume = 24448 ft3
Explanation
According to ideal gas law,
(P1 * V1) / (T1) = (P2 * V2) / (T2)
where P1 = initial pressure = 101377 Pa
V1 = initial volume = 270.83 ft3
T1 = initial temperature = 298.56 K
P2 = final pressure = 857.06 Pa
V2 = final volume
T2 = final temperature = 227.85 K
Substituting the values,
[(101377 Pa) * (270.83 ft3)] / (298.56 K) = [(857.06 Pa) * (V2)] / (227.85 K)
V2 = (270.83 ft3) * (101377 Pa / 857.06 Pa) * (227.85 K / 298.56 K)
V2 = (270.83 ft3) * (118.2846) * (0.76316)
V2 = 24447.95 ft3
