When you blow up the balloon‚ set your racer down‚ and let it go‚ escaping air from the balloon rushes out of the straw causing propulsion.

    Hot Air Balloon Report Hot air balloons fill up slowly and then rise in the sky. Two important principles of physics: the ideal gas law and Archimedes’ principle are the reasons hot air balloons fly.

However‚ there is a heater located in the balloon’s basket that heats the air inside the balloon and blows
