A typical volume of a modern hot air balloon is 2500 cubic metres, and a typical maximum temperature of the hot air is 120 degrees Celsius. Given these figures, and an outside air temperature and density of 15 \(^{\circ}C\) and 1.225 \(kg/m^3\) respectively, compute the maximum mass (in kilograms) of the balloon, basket and payload.
