Chordal Ricochet Pattern in Stretch Action of a Balloon Net: A gas
balloon's exterior tension "net" has the shape that it has because some of the mole-
cules are too large to escape and crowded by the other molecules are hitting the
balloon. But the molecules do not huddle together at the center and then simulta-
neously explode outwardly to hit the balloon skin in one omnidirectionally outbound
wave. The molecules near the surface are coursing in chordally ricocheting patterns all
around the inner net's surface. I therefore saw that because every action has its reac-
tion--it would be possible to pair all the molecules so that they would behave as can
two swimmers who dive into a swimming tank from opposite ends, meet in the middle
and then, employing each other's inertia, shove off from each other's feet in opposite
directions.
