A partially inflated balloon is released from the ground level and becomes larger as it rises in the atmosphere?

It is true that it will become larger as it risses in the atmosphere. This is because the pressure surrounding the balloon decreases, so the pressure inside the balloon wants to equalise with the outside pressure. This causes the balloon to expand as the inside air is trying to get out.
That's why things get 'sucked out' of a plane if there if someone opens the door at 30,000 feet, the cabin pressure is trying to equalise by removing the objects and air inside it.

When an inflated balloon is exposed to cold air?
The volume of the balloon decreases
What would be the length of the arrows if the balloon were inflated more?
The length would stay the same as the pressure inside the balloon equals the atmospheric pressure.
A balloon is weighted so that it is barely able to float in water. What will happen if it is pushed beneath the surface?
It sinks. By pressing it under the water, the water pressure on the balloon increases slightly and compresses the air in the balloon. This increases the density of the (balloon, weight) combo so that is more dense than water, hence it sinks. High altitude weather balloons are only inflated partway with helium when they are launched from the ground. The envelope of the balloon expands as it rises in the atmosphere.
Why inflated balloon cannot fit into your bag?
because the air inside the balloon take up the space and it will not allow the balloon to fit in bag
What do air particles do to keep a balloon inflated?
It's buoyancy - the same as a ship floating in water.In this case the volume of the balloon must weigh less than an equal volume of air.(That's done by using a lighter than air gas - hydrogen, helium, or just heated air.)
Partially inflated weather balloon has a volume of 1.56 x10 to the 3 power L?
5.98kPA
Why does a partially inflated weather balloon expand as it rises?
As height is gained the outside air pressure on the balloon is reduced. This reduction allows the gas inside the balloon to expand.
Why does a partially inflated balloon expand as it rises?
The pressure in the balloon stays the same, but the pressure outside drops as the altitude increases. And as the outside pressure drops, the balloon expands.
Why doesnt a balloon float with your air?
The air from your lungs has the same density as the air in our atmosphere. As a result a balloon inflated by a human using their lungs is unable to float.
Is there a PICC line with an inflated balloon for placement?
There is not a PICC line with an inflated balloon for placement.
who inflated a balloon?
You did
What is the difference in the height of the balloon after ten minutes and the height of the balloon after sixty minutes?
There is no difference at all if the balloon is not inflated or inflated with air.
What will happen if a partially inflated party balloon were heated?
The air molecules would expand, increasing the pressure of the balloon. When anything gets cold, it contracts, and when heated, it expands. Atoms and molecules are always moving - when something is hot, the molecules are moving faster and greater distances. When something is cold, the molecules are still moving, just slowly and at much smaller distances. You won't see much a difference while it's partially inflated, though there would be one. You can see results more drastically by heating a balloon that is near completely inflated. The more air molecules that are in the balloon, the greater the expansion. In other words, the bigger the balloon and more air that's in it, when heated you will see a larger change in the balloon size.
What is inside the inflated balloon?
Helium goes into a balloon to make it float.
When an inflated balloon is exposed to cold air?
The volume of the balloon decreases
Why are weather balloons partially infated before they're released into the atmosphere?
As you rise in elevation, the pressure around you decreases. This lower pressure would cause the balloon to expand, and burst if it was inflated to much originally. By starting it off only partly filled, it will expand to a normal size and not explode.
What causes the pressure in a balloon?
The elastic property of the balloon. The balloon stretches when inflated, and squeezes the gas filling the balloon.
