Balloon Puzzle

Genre: Math / Science Rating: 5 - Medium Source: Unknown
Brain Functions: Rational / Creative Solution

Imagine that you are driving a car straight along a street. All of the car’s windows are closed. Someone has tied a string to the floor in the back seat. The other end of the string is tied to a helium-filled balloon floating freely a few inches below the roof of the car. When the car makes a sharp turn to the right, how will the balloon move relative to the car? Will it tend to lean left, right, or not at all?
