Answer 1

The correct response is:

Newton's third law

This law states that for every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the case of a balloon rocket, when the air escapes from the balloon, it exerts a force in one direction (the action) and the balloon moves in the opposite direction (the reaction).
