Answer: either way</h2>
The balloon contains neutral charge atoms, that is, it has the same number of electrons (negative charge), protons (positive charge) and neutrons (no charge).
Then, when two objects come into contact, the electrons of one of them can become part of the other.
Thus, by bringing the balloon closer to the wall, the wall, which is also made up of atoms, will reorder its charges in such a way that its electrons or protons become part of the balloon, charging it.
It's just asking you to sit down and COUNT the little squares in each sector.
It'll help you keep everything straight if you take a very sharp pencil and make a tiny dot in each square as you count it. That way, you'll be able to see which ones you haven't counted yet, and also you won't count a square twice when you see that it already has a dot in it.
(If, by some chance, this is a picture of the orbit of a planet revolving around the sun ... as I think it might be ... then you should find that both sectors jhave the same number of squares.)
They would fall with the same acceleration
