Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The size of a weather balloon becomes larger and larger as it ascends up inot larger altitude :
According to Boyle's law the valume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure at a given temperature. As the weather balloon ascends, atmospheric pressure is less, pressure of the gas tends to decrease and so valume as well as the size of the balloon increase.
