00:00Hand-filling a mattress with helium make a person float in mid-air while sleeping.
00:04We all know that helium is a colorless, odorless, and extremely light monoatomic gas.
00:10When a balloon is filled with enough helium, it can float in the air.
00:14If helium is pumped into bicycle tires and weighed on an electronic scale, the tires
00:18filled with helium are found to be lighter than when they have no air.
00:22Dropping the tires from the same height, the helium-filled tires bounce higher than those
00:26filled with air.
00:27If helium is pumped into a soccer ball, not only does the ball's elasticity increase
00:32significantly, but its lighter weight also allows even those with no professional soccer
00:37training to easily kick a curved free kick.
00:41This leads us to a bold idea.
00:42If helium is pumped into a mattress, can a person lying on it float in mid-air?
00:45First, we weigh the mattress on an electronic scale.
00:49Then, we pump a large amount of helium into the mattress.
00:53However, as more helium is pumped in, the mattress does not float as we imagined.
00:58The buoyancy of the helium ultimately does not overcome the weight of the mattress.
01:03Next, we take a lighter paddleboard and continue the experiment outdoors.
01:08As more helium is pumped in, the paddleboard shows significant changes.
01:12From this, we conclude that helium can indeed provide buoyant force.
01:17For something to float, the buoyant force must be greater than the weight of the object.
