A lighter-than-air spherical balloon and its load of passengers
and ballast are floating stationary above the earth. Ballast is
weight (of negligible volume) that can be dropped overboard to make
the balloon rise. The radius of this balloon is 4.82 m.
Assuming a constant value of 1.29 kg/m3 for the
density of air, determine how much weight must be dropped overboard
to make the balloon rise 148 m in 29.0 s.
