The picture above shows a girl holding a balloon above her head. The balloon is lifting her hair because it has been charged with static electricity. The balloon is pulling upward on her hair, and that force is half of a third law pair of forces. Which of the following is the other half of that third law pair? Her hands hold up the balloon. Her hair pulls down on the balloon. O The Earth (via gravity) pulls down on the balloon. O The Earth (via gravity) pulls down on her hair.

Shown are the configuration of a gel electrophoresis experiment. Charged plates establish an electric field on a region of gel between the plates. A solution of DNA fragments, which acquire a negative charge in solution, is analyzed by using an electric field to drive the fragments through the gel. A drag force opposes the motion, causing the fragments to move at a constant speed. Larger fragments move more slowly, so the fragments separate by size to give a “fingerprint” of the sample. In the system shown , the electric field is directed to the _____; the DNA fragments move to the _____.A. right, right B. right, leftC. left, right D. left, left
