Question

A spherical balloon has a radius of 6.15 m and is filled with helium (pie- 0.179kg/m3). How large a cargo can it lift when such a balloon is in the air (Pair 1.29kg/m3), if the skin and structure of the balloon have a mass of 650 kg? Assume that there is no buoyant force on the volume of the cargo.
