Part 1. A slightly inflated balloon is placed about eight centimeters above a burning candle. Explain the change to the size of the balloon based on the kinetic molecular theory. Part 2. The same balloon is now placed in a bucket of ice cold water. Explain the change to the size of the balloon based on the kinetic molecular theory. In both cases, assume the balloon is tied tight enough so that air does not escape.

Imagine that a new planet is discovered with two moons of equal mass: moon a and moon b. the mass of the new planet is greater than the combined mass of its moons. moon a is farther away from the new planet than moon b. what is the planet's gravitational pull on moon a compared to the planet's gravitational pull on moon b? the planet's gravity repels moon a with a greater force than it repels moon b, which is why moon a is farther away. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is closer to the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon b is greater than on moon a because moon b is farther away from the new planet than moon a. the gravitational pull on moon a is the same as the gravitational pull on moon b because distance does not affect the planet's gravity.
