A balloon of gross weight W newton descends with an acceleration `fm//s^(2)` The weight that must be thrown out in order to give the balloon an equal upward acceleration will be:

A

`(Wf)/g`

B

`(2Wf)/g`

C

`(2Wf)/(g+f)`

D

`(W(g+f))/f`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`W-T=W/g "(f)"`....(i)
`T-W'=(W')/g f` ....(ii)
`W'=("final weight")`
