Which statement describes how this example is an application of Newton's laws of motion?

According to Newton's first law of motion, the balloon continues moving until the forces on it are balanced.

According to Newton's third law of motion, the balloon is pushed forward as the air is forced out.

According to Newton's third law of motion, the balloon resists any change of motion unless an unbalanced force acts upon it.

According to Newton's second law of motion, the balloon exerts a force on the air, which exerts a force back on the balloon.

Gauge Norris · Answer 1

The first statement is false, because according to the first law of motion, if force acting on ball is balanced, there is no net force, so the balloon will continue its state of motion in a straight line which is upwards

The third statement is false, because it describes the Newton's first law of motion

the fourth statement is false as it describes Newton's second law of motion.

so the answer is the second one I believe
