if you inflate a balloon, and then release it, the balloon will fly away. this is an illustration of
galileos law of inertia.
newtons third law.
newtons second law.
newtons first law.

Explanation:

• Galileo's law of inertia is related to objects in uniform motion or at rest without net force, not applicable here.
• Newton's third law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. When the balloon releases air (action), the air pushes the balloon in the opposite direction (reaction), causing it to fly away.
• Newton's second law is about force, mass, and acceleration (\(F = ma\)), not the action - reaction in this case.
• Newton's first law is about inertia (objects at rest or in uniform motion unless acted upon by a net force), not relevant here.

Answer:

B. Newton's third law.
