**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Context**: Weather balloons are filled with gas and are designed to rise into the atmosphere. As they ascend, they experience changes in atmospheric conditions. 2. **Recognizing Atmospheric Pressure Changes**: As the balloon rises to higher altitudes, the atmospheric pressure surrounding it decreases. This is a fundamental concept in meteorology and physics. 3. **Applying Boyle's Law**: Boyle's Law states that for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to its volume. This can be mathematically expressed as: \[ ...
