Please help asap

Ms. Brando’s students are studying forces. She has assigned a fun task: designing a balloon car. The students must design a car and see which model will travel the greatest distance. The basic design of the cars can be seen here. First the balloon is inflated and attached to the car. It is important to keep the balloon closed. Once attached to the car, the stem of the balloon is opened and air rushes out through the straw. The air goes one way; the car moves in the other direction. There are no restrictions on the design other than the students must use the materials given to them by Ms. Brando. What is the source of the force that moves the car? A) The circumference of the balloons. B) The friction between the wheels and the track surface. C) The air rushing out of the balloon through the straw. D) The mass of the car: the lighter the car the farther it moves.
