Answer:

    The mass was there all along, it was just in the air. The weight of the oxygen from the air is not weighed in the beginning, only at the end as part of the product, making it seem like there is a total mass change.

8. Bring the balloon in contact with the wall. What happens to the charges in the wall?
Ne4ueva [31]

When the charged balloon is brought near the wall, it repels some of the negatively charged electrons in that part of the wall. Therefore, that part of the wall is left repelled.

<u>Explanation</u>:  

  • Balloons don't stick to walls. However, if you rub the balloon on an appropriate piece of material such as clothing or a wall, electrons are pulled from the other material to the balloon.
  • The balloon now as more electrons than normal and therefore has an overall negative charge. Two balloons like this will repel each other.
  • The other material now has an overall positive charge. Because opposite charges attract, the balloon will now appear to stick to the other material. If you didn't rub the balloon first, it's charge would be neutral and it wouldn't stick to the wall.

The jet stream is one of the key winds that moves air masses at the direction from west to east it moves.

<h3>What are jet streams?</h3>

Jet streams are strong winds which are flow in the form of narrow bands in the upper part of the atmosphere. On the earth these winds are flows near the altitude of the tropopause. These winds carries weather systems and blows toward the colder northern air and due to the rotation of earth, its direction is from west to east.

5. What could you do to convert from meters to centimeters? *
maria [59]

C.

centi- is essentially 10^2 of one meter.

If you had 100m, multiplying 100 by 10^2 (or 100) would give you 10000 cm.
