What is a data logger?
A data logger, is an electronic instrument that records measurements at set intervals
over a period of time. Depending on the particular data logger, measurements can include: air
temperature, relative humidity, AC/DC current and voltage, differential pressure, light
intensity, water temperature, water level, dissolved oxygen, soil moisture, rainfall, wind speed
and direction, leaf wetness, pulse signals, room occupancy, plug load, and many more.

Method:

1) The water is heated by using a bunsen burner and the temperature is taken by using the
temperature sensor.
2) When the piston of the heat engine apparatus rise 1 milimeter, start button was
pressed to record the temperature.
Observation:

After one hour and 30 minutes, the water become hot and the balloon was expand.

The balloon expand because the air inside the test tube is increasing in volume and moved
into the balloon.

Result:
Discussion:

1. What is the relationship between the volume of a gas and the temperature of the gas?
2. What is the manipulated variable?
3. Explain the phenomenon that involved both temperature and volume?

The Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta in New Mexico is the largest hot air balloon
festival in the entire world. This event was held at each October, the event spans nine days
and features over 750 incredible balloons. Explain how hot air balloon can fly into the sky?
Answer:

Hot air balloons have three important compartments which are basket, burners, and
envelope.

To make it fly, the person that sat in the basket will open up the burner to start the fire.

The heat that produced by the burner will heat up the air inside the envelope.

The heat will cause the air inside the envelope to increase in volume.

As the volume of the air increasing, the hot air balloon will move into the sky.
