Question
A consumer upset with the latest trend of postal rate increases has decided to try to send letters by balloon even though they may not reach their intended destinations. A \(6.00 \times 10^4 \, \text{cm}^3\) gas-filled balloon will provide enough lift for a 46.8 g package to be accelerated upward at a rate of \(2.65 \, \text{m/s}^2\). For these circumstances, calculate the density of the gas the consumer fills the balloon with. The acceleration due to gravity is \(g = 9.81 \, \text{m/s}^2\) and the density of air is \(\rho_{\text{air}} = 1.16 \, \text{kg/m}^3\). Neglect the mass of the balloon material and the volume of the package.

\[
\rho = \quad\quad \text{kg/m}^3
\]
