Which observation provides the best evidence of the force that the balloons exert on each other over a distance because of their charge?

• Moving Balloon 1 can make Balloon 2 move without the balloons touching.

• The charge on the balloons gets weaker over time until there is no charge.

• The amount of rubbing with the wool cloth can change the amount of charge.

• Both Balloon 1 and Balloon 2 are pulled downward by the force of gravity.
