AI Generated Solution

To solve the problem, we need to find the time taken by the stone to reach the ground after it is dropped from a balloon that is rising with a constant acceleration of \( \frac{g}{8} \). The balloon rises to a height \( H \) before the stone is dropped. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Determine the velocity of the balloon when it reaches height \( H \)**: The balloon starts from rest and rises with a constant acceleration \( a = \frac{g}{8} \). We can use the second equation of motion: \[ v^2 = u^2 + 2a s ...
