Ballooning on Mars it has been proposed that we could explore Mars using inflated balloons to hover
Question:
(a) What should be the radius and mass of these balloons so they just hover above the surface of Mars?
(b) If we released one of the balloons from part (a) on earth, where the atmospheric density is 1.20 kg/m', what would be its initial acceleration assuming it was the same size as on Mars? Would it go up or down?
(c) If on Mars these balloons have five times the radius found in part (a), how heavy an instrument package could they cany?
