Auguste Antoine Piccard (28 January 1884-24 March 1962) was a Swiss physicist, inventor and explorer known for his record-breaking hydrogen balloon flights, with which he studied the Earth's upper atmosphere and became the first person to enter the Stratosphere.

The volume of Piccard's balloon was V = 14 x 10³ m³. When he was in the stratosphere, the altitude was H = 17.7 km. Assume: the mass of hydrogen in the balloon was .. Mhydrogen, and the mean density of the air at that altitude is the value given below. Then what was the total payload mass of the experiment (i.e., the total mass of the balloon material not including hydrogen + gondola + instruments + the scientists)?

Mhydrogen = 190 kg; density of the air = 0.114 kg/m³; (in kg)
