Calculating Cargo Lift for Helium Balloons 🎈

In this video, I walk you through a physics problem from Giancoli Physics, focusing on how much cargo a helium-filled balloon can lift. We start by identifying the key variables, including the balloon's radius and mass, and then apply Archimedes' principle to find the mass of the cargo. I encourage you to pause the video and think through the problem before we dive into the calculations. Please make sure to follow along and check your understanding as we go!
