Explanation

A weather balloon is not fully inflated on the ground because the air inside the balloon would expand and may burst as it rises.

The atmosphere is less dense at higher altitudes, so the pressure inside the balloon becomes greater than the pressure outside.

This causes the balloon to expand until it reaches its elastic limit and bursts.

Weather balloons typically burst at altitudes of over 15 miles (24.1 kilometers).

If a balloon were fully inflated on the ground, the gas would need to be vented out and wasted as it expands. 

Explanation

Surface tension acts like a stretched membrane on the water's surface, and the surface tension along the blade's edges is greater than the blade's weight.

The force of surface tension acts tangentially to the liquid surface on the circumference of the blade.

Explanation

Explanation

• Television signals cannot be received ordinarily beyond a particular distance due to the curvature of the earth.

Key Points

• Signal waves travel in a straight line from the transmitting antenna to the receiving antenna. The signal transmitted from a TV tower cannot be received beyond a certain distance because the surface of the Earth is curved.
• This is due to, after going a certain distance the frequency of television signals decreases while their wavelength increases.
• Signal waves transmitted from a transmitter get absorbed or blocked by the curvature of Earth and are not received. 

Additional Information

• Signal:
  • Information converted in electrical form and suitable for transmission is called a signal.
  • Signals can be either analog or digital.

Explanation

Pair up the letters of the alphabet as follows: A = 1, Z = 26; B = 2, Y =25; C = 3, X = 24; ... M = 13 , N =14. So, we have a correspondence between 13 pairs of letters: ( A, Z) , (B, Y), ( C, X), (D,W), (E, V), (F, U), (G, T), (H, S), (I, R), (J, Q), (K, P), (L, O), (M, N).

Thus:

H = S

O = L

L = O

Y = B

and...

L = O

O= L

W= D

So, the whole analogy is :

HOLY: SLOB as LOW : OLD

Explanation

The prime numbers less than 25 are: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, and 23.

Let's add them up:

2 + 3 = 5

5 + 5 = 10

10 + 7 = 17

17 + 11 = 28

28 + 13 = 41

41 + 17 = 58

58 + 19 = 77

77 + 23 = 100

So, the sum of prime numbers less than 25 is: 100

Explanation

The sentence "My friend Ismail and me went to the party" is grammatically wrong because it uses the incorrect pronoun "me" as the subject of the sentence.

The correct sentence should use the pronoun "I" as the subject, like this:

"My friend Ismail and I went to the party"
