Answer

When: $T_{atm}=15^{\circ}C$ $T_{ballon}=306.65K$ When: $T_{atm}=30^{\circ}C$ $T_{ballon}=323.67K$

Work Step by Step

When: $T_{atm}=15^{\circ}C$ $V_{ballon}=\frac{4\pi r^3}{3}=\frac{4\pi (10m)^3}{3}=4188.79m^3$ $\rho_{coolair}=\frac{P}{RT}=\frac{90kPa}{0.287\frac{kPam^3}{kgK}*(15+273.15)K}=1.0883\frac{kg}{m^3}$ $F_{B}=\rho_{coolair}gV_{ballon}=1.0883\frac{kg}{m^3}*9.81\frac{m}{s^2}*4188.79m^3=44.72kN$ $F_{B}=W_{people}+W_{cages}+W_{hotair}$ $W_{hotair}=44.72kN-9.81\frac{m}{s^2}*(3*65kg+80kg)=42.02kN$ $m_{hotair}=\frac{W_{hotair}}{g}=\frac{42.02kN}{9.81\frac{m}{s^2}}=4283.61kg$ $T=\frac{PV}{mR}=\frac{90kPa*4188.79m^3}{4283.61kg*0.287\frac{kPam^3}{kgK}}=306.65K$ When: $T_{atm}=30^{\circ}C$ $\rho_{coolair}=\frac{P}{RT}=\frac{90kPa}{0.287\frac{kPam^3}{kgK}*(30+273.15)K}=1.0344\frac{kg}{m^3}$ $F_{B}=\rho_{coolair}gV_{ballon}=1.0344\frac{kg}{m^3}*9.81\frac{m}{s^2}*4188.79m^3=42.51kN$ $W_{hotair}=42.51kN-9.81\frac{m}{s^2}*(3*65kg+80kg)=39.81kN$ $m_{hotair}=\frac{W_{hotair}}{g}=\frac{39.81kN}{9.81\frac{m}{s^2}}=4058.33kg$ $T=\frac{PV}{mR}=\frac{90kPa*4188.79m^3}{4058.33kg*0.287\frac{kPam^3}{kgK}}=323.67K$
