All three are types of lighter-than-air aircraft that rely on buoyancy to fly. They also have a balloon-like structure filled with a gas that is less dense than the surrounding air. However, hot air balloons specifically use heated air to generate lift, while blimps and dirigibles are powered by engines for propulsion.
While balloons are at the mercy of the wind and cannot be steered, dirigibles (or airships) have engines and rudders that allow for controlled navigation and steering. Dirigibles can ascend and descend by adjusting their buoyancy and use their propulsion systems to move in different directions.
The phase difference between two waves is directly proportional to the path difference between them. The phase difference is a measure of how much the wave has shifted along its oscillation cycle, while the path difference is a measure of the spatial separation between two points where the waves are evaluated.
The difference between 164 and 220 is 56.
Potential difference between the ends of a conductor refers to the electrical energy difference per unit charge between two points in the conductor. It is commonly known as voltage and is measured in volts. A potential difference is necessary for the flow of electric current in a conductor.
Dirigibles are lighter-than-air aircraft that can be maneuvered by their own power. There are different kinds of dirigibles, such as blimps and airships, but all are distinguished from other lighter-than-air craft, such as balloons, which do not have their own steering and power sources.
Limitations of blimps, dirigibles, and hot air balloons include their susceptibility to weather conditions, limited speed and maneuverability, and dependence on wind patterns for navigation. They also have low payload capacities and are typically more expensive to operate compared to other modes of transportation.
One of the original purposes was to be a mooring mast for dirigibles/blimps but it was rarely (if ever) used as that..

blimps are oval shaped
Beside the actual design of course, the difference is that airplanes use their engines/propellers and wing to create air flow and fly while blimps, zeppelins, and the like use hot air to propel themselves up and increase or decrease hot air in the balloon to go up or down. This is the main difference between the two aircrafts.
Airships are also, and more commonly, known as zeppelins. The term airship is also used to refer to an airplane, but this usage is incorrect, as they have two different meanings. Airships might also be called blimps or dirigibles.
The last rigid dirigible built in the United States was the Macon, ZR-5. Non-rigid dirigibles (blimps) are still being built, although Goodyear's Mayflower was the last one to be built by that company.
Today's blimps are not filled with flammable hydrogen gas like Hindenburg was, but normally the non-flammable helium.
No. Blimps require atmosphere.
Count Ferdinand von Zeppelin invented the first practical dirigibles in the late 1800's but he didn't fly the first ones till about 1910. There were previous balloons called dirigibles, but they did not have a frame.
Dirigibles is pronounced as "dir-i-juh-buhls" with the emphasis on the second syllable.
