The correct answer is:
Hot air balloon will rise in the atmosphere when upthrust of buoyant force is greater than weight of balloon and its payload. Upthrust = Weight of atmospheric air displaced by balloon So, upthrust weight of balloon and its payload
(Volume of air displaced density of atmospheric air Acceleration due to gravity) (Volume of air of inside balloon
x density of air inside balloon acceleration due to gravity) + (Weight of payload of balloon)
where density of outside air and density of inside air.
So, temperature of hot air is near to .
