A blimp is cruising slowly at low altitude

Reference no: EM13677949

A blimp is cruising slowly at low altitude, full as usual with helium gas. Its maximum useful payload, including crew and cargo is 1260 kg. The volume of the helium-filled interior space is 6960 m3. The density of helium gas is 0.16 kg/m3, and the density of hydrogen is 0.081 kg/m3. How much more payload could the blimp carry if you replaced the helium with hydrogen?
