A balloon of mass m is rising with an acceleration a. A fraction of its mass is detached from the balloon.Its acceleration will

Open in App

Solution

The acceleration of the balloon will be increasing due to the reduction of mass. According to Newton's 2nd law, $F = m a$
$a = \frac{F}{m}$ . Acceleration of a body is inversely proportional to mass.
