A group of researchers prepared a spherically shaped inflatable weather balloon filled with helium gas at a temperature of 15.0°C and a pressure of .980 atm making a radius of 3.0 meters. As the balloon reaches the highest altitude, the temperature drops to -60.0°C, and the atmospheric pressure is at 0.010 atm. Determine the radius of the weather balloon at that altitude.
