Yes, it does, due to the decreasing pressure at higher altitudes.

No, the balloon did not change size.


What will change the size of the weather balloon as it rises?

The pressure of the air inside it. The higher the balloon rises, the lower the outside air-pressure. With less pressure outside, the balloon expands because of the pressure of the air inside it. Eventually, the balloon bursts, and scientists recover the instruments when they fall to earth.


Does cold weather affect maximum balloon inflation size?

yes


A weather balloon is brought to the ground sea level from an altitude of 4km when it reaches the ground the balloon is its original size?

The question is not clear but i think it will be the same original size as it was initially.


Why does the shape and size of a balloon change when filled with air or water?

The shape and size of a balloon change when filled with air or water because the molecules of the substance fill the balloon and exert pressure on its walls. This pressure causes the balloon to expand and take on the shape of its contents. The volume of the balloon increases as more air or water is added, changing its size accordingly.


How long can a weather balloon stay in the air before it descends back to the ground?

A weather balloon can stay in the air for several hours to a few days before descending back to the ground. The exact duration depends on factors such as the size of the balloon, the altitude it reaches, and weather conditions.


Why does the air change the shape and size of the balloon?

Because the air is coming inside the balloon.

Will a balloon filled with water change shape or size when frozen?

If a balloon were completely filled with water, with no extra space, then it will change shape and/or size as the water is frozen. This is because water expands at a rate of 9% when frozen.


What is a name for a device that is sent up into the air to measure information about the weather?

Why does a partially inflated weather balloon expand as it rises?

As the weather balloon rises in altitude, the air pressure around it decreases while the pressure inside the balloon remains relatively constant. This pressure difference causes the gas inside the balloon to expand, increasing its volume and size.
