The weight of an empty balloon on a spring balance is $w_1$. The weight becomes $w_2$ when the balloon is filled with air. Let the weight of the air itself be $w$. Neglect the thickness of the balloon when it is filled with air. Also,neglect the difference in the densities of air inside and outside the balloon. Then:

  • A
    $w_2 = w_1$
  • B
    $w_2 = w_1 + w$
  • C
    $w_2 < w_1 + w$
  • D
    $A$ and $C$ both
