A hydrogen balloon released on the moon would

Options

A. climb up with an acceleration of `9.8(m)/(s^2)`
B. climb up with an acceleration of `9.8xx6(m)/(s^2)`
C. neither climb nor fall
D. fall with an acceleration of `((9.8)/(6))(m)/(s^2)`

Answer

D

Explanation

As there is no atmosphere on the moon, no buoyancy acts on it. It therefore, falls down with an acceleration due to moon's gravity which is `((1)/(6))` th of that due to the Earth, i.e.,`((9.8)/(6))(m)/(s^2)`
