Calculate the buoyant force of air (density 1.20 kg/m3) on a spherical party balloon that has a radius of 17.0 cm . If the rubber of the balloon itself has a mass of 2.00 g and the balloon is filled with helium (density 0.166 kg/m3), calculate the net upward force (the “lift”) that acts on it in air.
