If a small child were to release a balloon into the atmosphere, what would happen to the size of the balloon as it makes it way

higher in the sky?
A) The balloon would become smaller because the pressure of the surrounding air would crush it.
B) The balloon would become smaller because the air molecules inside the balloon would get closer together.
C) The balloon would become larger because the air molecules on the inside of the balloon would expand.
D) The balloon would stay the same because the pressure inside the balloon is equal to the pressure of the atmosphere.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option C.

<u>Explanation:</u>

As we move higher in the sky, the atmospheric pressure decreases. The relationship of pressure with volume is given by Boyle's Law.

This law states that the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.

Mathematically,

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

where,

P is the pressure of the gas.

V is the volume of the gas.

If the pressure of the gas decreases, the volume increases and vice-versa.

As written above, the pressure at higher levels decreases, which results in the increase of volume. Hence, the balloon expands.

therefore, the correct answer is option C.

D is the correct answer :).

The four inner planets have slower orbits, slower spin, no rings, and they are made of rock and metal. The four outer planets have faster orbits and spins, a composition of gases and liquids, numerous moons, and rings. The outer planets are made of hydrogen and helium, so they are called gas giants.

What boundaries create new oceanic crust?​
enyata [817]
ANSWER ( Convergent plate boundaries )

At convergent plate boundaries, oceanic crust is often forced down into the mantle where it begins to melt. Magma rises into and through the other plate, solidifying into granite, the rock that makes up the continents. Thus, at convergent boundaries, continental crust is created and oceanic crust is destroyed.

Can someone help me? The question is State two scenarios that demonstrate the process diffusion​
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

One could be in the cell. The cell respires, thus producing carbon dioxide in it. So the concentration builds up in the cell. Diffusion is the net movement of particles from a region of high concentration to a region of low concentration, and the carbon dioxide concentration outside the cell is less, therefore the carbon dioxide molecules moves outs of the cell.

Another scenario is when perfume is sprayed into the air. The perfume particles collides with the air particles (lower or no concentration of perfume). This process goes on and on. This is diffusion since the concentration perfume particles collides with the less concentrated particles of perfume.
