A balloon rises slowly in the sky from the surface of the earth. If the initial size is 0.20 cm, what is its size at a height of 1,000 m? What is its size at 10,000 m? Assume that the density and pressure at the surface of the earth are! = 1.229 kg/m3 and! = 101.3 kPa. Assume that the balloon is very flexible, so that its surface tension can be neglected.
