61. Gravity

62. The air inside the balloon is lighter than the air so it tries to pull away. That’s why the string is straight. Here is lift.
The string connects the balloon to the weight.
The earth’s gravity is pulling on the weight so the balloon does not float away. Here is gravity.

66. This is Helium.

67. Helium is lighter than everything except for hydrogen
Helium is lighter than everything except for hydrogen. Helium is used in balloons.

68. This is a triple beam balance.

69. How to use it. First, put the object on the dish.

71. Then, you move the weights around until the line lines up with the other line.

73. Done!

74. These are graduated cylinders.
