Answer

$Time \approx 12minutes$

Work Step by Step

PV = mRT When ballon is fully inflated, mass of air inside ballon $m = \frac{PV}{RT}$ Enter the values $m = \frac{120 \times \frac{4}{3} \times (\frac{15}{2})^{3}}{0.287 \times 293}$ $m = 2521.76 kg$ Flow density $S = \frac{m}{V} = \frac{P}{RT}$ $S = \frac{120}{0.287 \times297} = 1.427 $ $ Pie = 3.141$ $m^{\circ} = SAV $ $m^{\circ} = 1.427 \times \frac{3.141}{4}(1^{2}) \times 3m/s$ $m^{\circ} = 3.36kg/s$ let time t takes to fill $m^{\circ} \times t = m$ $t =\frac{m}{m^{\circ}}$ $t = \frac{2521.76}{3.36}$ $t \approx 750 sec$ convert to minutes $t \approx 12 minutes $
