Which best describes why gravity on Earth has a stronger attraction with you than the Sun has?

A. Earth has more mass than the Sun, allowing a stronger attraction to form.

B. The Sun has more mass than Earth.

C. Earth has a smaller mass than the Sun, but it is much closer to you than the Sun, allowing for a stronger attraction.

D. Earth has more magnetism than the Sun.

Consider an ordinary, helium-filled party balloon with a volume of 2.2 ft3. the lifting force on the balloon due to the outside air is the net resultant of the pressure distribution exerted on the exterior surface of the balloon. using this fact, we can derive archimedes’ principle, namely that the upward force on the balloon is equal to the weight of the air displaced by the balloon. assuming that the balloon is at sea level, where the air density is 0.002377 slug/ft3, calculate the maximum weight that can be lifted by the balloon. note: the molecular weight of air is 28.8 and that of helium is 4.
