2. Which of the following DOES NOT explain how a hot air balloon boarded by Mr. Santos
able to float in air?
A. Temperature is the measure of the motion of the particles. When temperature
increases the particles begin to move faster.
B. As the temperature of air inside the balloon increases, the particles movement
increases which lead to more collisions between the particles. So, the greater the
amount of collisions, the larger the pressure.
C. The volume of the balloon increases until the balloon reaches its maximum capacity,
thus since the particles are still heated the pressure remains larger than atmospheric
pressure.
D. The altitude of the balloon contributes to the increase of the balloon's size but
lessens the collision of air particles inside the balloon.​
