Will Helium Filled Balloons Float or Sink In a Vacuum Chamber?

[@eMBO_Gaming]

Flat earthers in the comments can't decide if this is supposed to prove their delusion, or if it debunks it, so some of the people are calling it fake and the other part is saying because of that demonstration gravity doesn't exist. A perfect psychological demonstration of cognitive dissonance - draw literally any conclusion, if it only alligns with your worldview.

Basic knowledge of how densities and buoyancy work is all that's needed to say they won't float. Helium floats because it's less dense than air, no air no buoyancy, basic stuff.

AMPed101 First of all, there is no micron gauge that proves exactly how deep of a vacuum the vacuum chamber is in, second of all, helium is only lighter than air. if you remove most of the air the medium that is left (the balloon) pushes down on the helium because it is heavier than the gas.

[@georgeh5075]

Not really correct with the explanation of buoyancy. In this case it falls simply because the water sticks to the balloon and it's enough to weight it down past the neutral buoyancy point for that balloon and gas combination. Each object has it's own buoyancy in air and water, every balloon is different, some will require more or less water to bring them into negative buoyancy If the atmosphere was 100% (or actually 75% because balloon rated helium is not pure helium to prevent people dying when they inhale it as a gag) hydrogen, which is much lighter than helium. Then the helium balloon would sink because it's more dense than the atmosphere. But if the surrounding atmosphere is, like air is, more dense than helium, the helium will float. Lighter things float in denser things. Hope this helped clear things up for confused people

[@brian5o]

So much science going on in this video, I love it.

[@TheNightshotBR]

Sure, the helium filled balloon has more buyancy than the air, enough to counteract the force of gravity (which is a fairly weak force to begin with). So when you put the balloon in a vacuum chamber, you nulify the buyancy factor. THEN the gravity has full control of the objects, thus pulling them down.

[@billywazza6911]

Sure, the helium filled balloon has less density than the surrounding medium. So when you put the balloon in a vacuum chamber and remove the surrounding medium the balloon becomes more dense than the surrounding medium.....nothing to do with Grabitty. Which Grabitty are you referring too ? Newtons or Einsteins?

[@TheNightshotBR]

@@billywazza6911 Yes, the baloon is more dense than the vacuum (absense of matter, after all). But what gives the object its vector (force with magnitude and DIRECTION)? There is something dictating that the baloon must go DOWN. What is it? We absolutely know it´s NOT because of density, because density doesn´t define vector. Density is simply how much matter exixts in a given physical space. A ball of paper is more dense than a sheet of paper, because the same matter is concentrated on a much smaller physical space. But nothing in there defines which direction both the ball and the sheet must go in a free fall. The vector is coming from something else.

Rather, helium changes the timbre and emphasizes the higher harmonics in the vocal cavity, which makes your voice sound higher.

[@angrysnek4445]

So stuff floats and sinks because of density not gravity? How can we prove gravity exists?

[@TheActionLab]

Huh? If there were no gravity nothing would float or sink.

[@angrysnek4445]

The Action Lab gravity is a supposed force that is always pressing on us and everything and is the supposed reasons the oceans dont fall off our globe as were orbiting and spinning. The experiment you did sucked all of the oxygen from the chamber leaving helium as the only gas in the room, in which helium is denser than nothing, hence the balloon sank. Therefore stuff floats and sinks because of density and buoyancy not a force pressing on us, gravity.

[@jordyf3360]

The Action Lab, This is another SOLID PROVE that the gravity doesn't exist. Please use your logic. Why does helium balloon floats in the air? Because helium balloon is less dense (lighter) than surrounding air. When you remove the surrounding air inside vacuum chamber. It means that helium ballon vs NOTHING. So, helium balloon is the most denser inside vacuum chamber. Do you understand the flat earth law? The law is : The earth is flat (HORIZONTAL) The only option is neither UP or DOWN. Heavier object goes down. Lighter object goes up. Example: Mixing water vs oil. Oil goes up and water goes down. The FE law is proven to be true. Again, why did the helium balloon go down in the vacuum? Because according to law, heavier objects goes down and helium balloon becomes the heaviest object in the vacuum. No pulling force is ever needed. Gravity does not exist. Globe Earth is a big lie.

[@Katie-el5ew]

Density and gravity are two totally different forces. Air and helium and oil in water "float" and "sink" only in relation to each other. The heavier of the two sinks to the bottom of the other. If it were not for gravity, they would both just float off into space.

[@jordyf3360]

Katie, Why do you need to assume that "If it were not for gravity, they would both just float off into space." How does that logic come from? Do you want to know the answer? Because you are too brainwashed. There is no such pulling / sucking force in reality. The logic of gravity is only in your imagination. It does not match reality. But why gravity need to be exist in your mind? Just to fooled yourself that you are living on a spinning ball which is doesn't make any sense at all. If you want to investigate flat earth, you will realize that flat earth model is not what you imagine. Flat Earth is a closed system, all makes sense and everything fits in reality. You just blind your eyes not to see reality. Earth is flat and stationary, that's the real fact. Investigate more, and once you understand, you can decide for yourself, which one is better, which one fits reality. Free your mind from deception. Good luck.

And if you put the balloons in a high pressure container the balloons would shrink but still float. Then if you let the pressure out the balloons would grow, returning to their original size. This is what happens to weather balloons when launched into the edge of our atmosphere. The low pressure ends up making the balloons explode which is why a balloon won't just keep going higher and higher.

Of course that helium should sink in a medium with less density. But... 1:34 It's obvious that the balloon was glued to the top of the container and it unglued when its shape was elongated (due to its internal pressure). This means that it wasn't filled with helium, but rather mere air. Also, as you drain the vacuumed chamber of air, you should see the balloon fall faster and faster, not at once, like a rock. 2:17 The video was interrupted, so you most likely had time to get another balloon, filled with helium this time, still lingering in the container due to static electricity until you've pulled it out, to show that it floats in the room.

I have a question.. we KNOW the balloon itself is heavier than air and of course would sink due to buoyancy and density alone in a vacuum chamber because there is no air But.. if we popped the balloon inside the vacuum chamber, what will happen to the helium molecules? Will they rise or sink - this hasn't been tested. Can we test for that with helium perhaps that is dyed?

[@jameswarner7435]

The helium should just spread out evenly and uniformly fill the chamber. The chamber is not nearly tall enough to reflect it, but theoretically, gravity will cause the density of helium at the bottom of the chamber be slightly higher than at the top.

[@DivergentDroid]

That's an interesting answer. I expected the answer to be all the helium molecules settled to the bottom due to gravity. How can any of them not sit exactly on the bottom - there is no air so those molecules should not float at all. If any molecules are suspended even in a vacuum, this tells me there's is more than gravity working here. Thank you for your opinion. I guess we'll just have to wait till someone can get dyed helium and try it.

[@jameswarner7435]

Your right, there is more than gravity going on here. One of the physical properties of a gas is that it expands to fill it's container. Even though everything else in the tank comes to rest, the helium atoms themselves will remain in constant motion, and so they constantly bump into each other and off the walls of the tank. The temperature of a gas is actually a product of the kinetic motion of it's atoms. Higher temp = atoms moving faster, and lower temp = slower. Theoretically, the helium atoms would stop moving around if chilled to absolute zero and then come to rest on the container's bottom, just like the balloon does. The problem is that chilling something to absolute zero is currently impossible, although science allows us to cool things to very very nearly that unimaginably cold. Scientists theorize that if we were able to achieve absolute zero, subatomic particles would finally stop moving too, causing atoms to not just stand still, but actually disintegrate!

@@ThePauloVJCastilho The video demonstrates that the attractive force hypothesis is flawed. The helium balloon goes down only when it becomes heavier than its surrounding medium. Once the experimenter opens the vacuum chamber the balloon is reintroduced to heavy air, and being lighter than it, the helium filled balloon rises. If allowed to keep rising in the sky (assuming it doesn't pop), it would reach gases in the air of equal density, whereby it would float. You can replicate this by filling a balloon with just the right amounts of helium and air and watch it levitate in place, neither rising nor falling. How can this be with a pulling force acting upon all mass?

i thought an air ship out of vakum cant fly bekause you made it so hevy in the wals to dosnt colapse

[@johntheux9238]

it's SUPER STRONG ballons !

[@adammousa5961]

nice video😀

[@johnkechagais7096]

There was also some helium in the chamber from the popped balloon

[@andreas2228]

So you just proved there is no gravity. Just density and statics. Nice 👍

[@andreas2228]

The balloon is a container for helium. But it still floats because it's less dense than the air around. So logically if there is no air, its density is even less than the medium around and it should float even more. But it needs something with higher density to float... So the weight in the balloon does never change, so gravity is always pulling the same. Technically it should never float... You know: what's heavier, 1kg metal or 1kg helium... It's the same. But expand 1kg helium in a balloon, and it will float... This alone tells me, gravity is wrong.

@@andreas2228 So you just proved you have no idea what you're talking about. Nice👍 Just because you can counteract a force doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. The reason that helium balloons float and goes up is in fact buoyancy. Buoyancy Is the result of a fluid with higher density being pulled down harder than an object with lower density BY GRAVITY, creating an upward force (or vice versa). The more dense the fluid is the bigger the force is. What happen when you remove the air around the helium balloon? You decrease the density of the air around it and in the result, the buoyant force. However because gravity is still present the balloon falls down. Density and statics alone cannot explain why objects with different densities and materials fall down at the same time in the vacuum or why the atmosphere gets "thinner" the higher we go.

@@msa7933 Go deeper into the rabbit hole. Space has the strongest vacuum we know. Air should be sucked out to space. Water too. Is vacuum cleaner can lift a car, space vacuum can suck out every liquid we know. You know what water dows in vacuum? It boils and get's gas. Gravity is not as strong as just a little tiny bit of vacuum. Without container, earth is dead. Only place where your gravity theory would work is at the border to a black hole. What still is Science fiction. Even when mathematics say it's a black hole, we still can not prove it. We assume it has to be without any prove. Because we have no better Explanation until now. You just proved you believe everything somebody tells you... There are a whole bunch of theories what dows not fit together when you completely disassembly it.

@@andreas2228 What force pulls things down? Gravity. It's not that difficult.

@@andreas2228 "Space has the strongest vacuum we know. Air should be sucked out to space. Water too." Common misconception about vacuums. Vacuums do not suck, as they are literally the absence of any matter. Nothing can't do anything. The only other force that is acting on the atmosphere, as well as gravity, is its pressure, which isn't strong enough to eject itself into space. This pressure would not even exist if gravity didn't exist. "Only place where your gravity theory would work is at the border to a black hole. What still is Science fiction." You realise we literally have known black holes which are constantly being researched and studied, right? We literally got pictures of actual black holes as well. "You just proved you believe everything somebody tells you..." Coming from the space denier, who literally got his information from videos on the internet. Do you feel smart, not having actually studied anything at all?

[@WokeandProud]

Not a flat earther or conspiracy nut here, this is just an honest question. But why didn't the balloons pop from the pressure of the helium inside the balloons to the complete lack of pressure in the vacuum chamber?

[@johnjonson6628]

If i didnt get it wrong, because the balloons werent full, so it make possible not to pop in vacuum.

[@LittleChimp3]

would you place a half filled balloon just where it will barely float to see if it will float when the air is partially removed then of coarse it will sink when all air is removed. so the balloon should float then sink again as the air is being removed.

[@Speeder84XL]

Nice! and fun at the end.

[@oz990]

Drill a hole on the side of the vacuum chamber after the helium baloon falls

[@denisgiguere1600]

Hi ! At what pressure the balloons fell ?

[@onadelta1286]

What if you put a balloon full of air and pressurize the chamber, will it float admitting it doesn't implode?

[@carultch]

If a helium-filled balloon would sink, an otherwise-identical balloon filled with air would definitely sink.

can you try soap bubbles

[@lattetown]

That was awesome!

[@firstboi6937]

Put water and vegetable oil in a vacuum chamber, I think it might look cool

[@iAMeXoRiZe]

imagine if it didnt float up at the end lmao

[@DW_Underwater]

why could you hear the balloon pop in the chamber? I thought sound does not travel in a vacuum.

[@wafflesaber4842]

d k The air inside the vacuum chamber was only thinned, not completely removed. Therefore, the sound still had a medium to travel through. Fun fact: I think sound would actually travel more slowly in the chamber, though. Good question!

[@daltonsimmerman3054]

d k it's because when the balloon pops it releases that air at very high speed which collided with the sides of the chamber creating sound. you would actually hear an explosion in space for this reason. and the "sound" would travel faster in a vacuum because the air disperses without other air in front of it to slow it down. since the sound doesn't have to propagate as a wave, it's just however fast the air molecules fly out of the balloon.
