A sphere balloon with 30 cm in radius is released from the ground, 300 K and 101.325 kPa. The balloon is charged with Helium at 1 atm (absolute), thus creating buoyant force for balloon to rise. The radius of the balloon does not change, and the mass of balloon is 0.1 kg, except the mass of Helium inside. The atmosphere can be assumed to be isothermal at 300 K with air (molecular weight = 29 kg/kmol).
