A helium-filled balloon will sink in helium surroundings, a hydrogen surrounding or in a partial vacuum of a vacuum chamber. Here in this vid, we are able to make a helium-filled balloon sink in a partial vacuum by evacuating the air from within a vacuum chamber. We then make it rise by letting in the air into the chamber.

  • Ha! Thats simple....Helium has mass and due to gravity acting upon that small amount of vacuum is much larger, so due to mass and weight, it sinks...i made myself understand...

  • @dimolisher00

    thanks for the precision, we didn't understand this...

    <.<
