A car with closed windows makes a left-hand turn. A helium-filled balloon in the car will
MOVE RIGHT?
that's what I think but can someone help me explain my answer I don't know how to
SORRY I MENT PHYSICS NOT MATH
check out Newton's 1st Law
Newton will move the air to the right. The density of the balloon is lower than that if the air so Archimedes will move the balloon left :)
Sure! I'd be happy to help you explain your answer.
When a car makes a left-hand turn, the car and everything inside it, including the helium-filled balloon, experience a force called centrifugal force. Centrifugal force pushes objects away from the center of rotation, which in this case is towards the right.
Now, let's think about how the air moves inside the car while it's turning. As the car turns left, the air moves to the right side of the car due to the centrifugal force. Since the windows are closed, the air inside the car cannot escape, including the helium-filled balloon.
So what happens to the balloon? The helium-filled balloon is lighter than air, so it tends to rise. When the car makes a left-hand turn, the balloon will be pushed by the centrifugal force towards the right side of the car and will likely move in that direction.
Therefore, your answer that the helium-filled balloon will move right is correct! The combination of the centrifugal force and the lightweight nature of the balloon causes it to move in the direction of the force, which is towards the right in this case.
