$A$ balloon with mass $m$ is descending vertically with an acceleration $a$ (where $a < g$). The mass to be removed from the balloon so that it starts moving vertically up with an acceleration $a$ is:

  • A
    $\frac{2ma}{g+a}$
  • B
    $\frac{2ma}{g-a}$
  • C
    $\frac{ma}{g+a}$
  • D
    $\frac{ma}{g-a}$

$A$ soldier with a machine gun,falling from an airplane,gets detached from his parachute. He is able to resist the downward acceleration if he shoots $40$ bullets per second at a speed of $500 \,m/s$. If the mass of a bullet is $49 \,g$,what is the mass of the man with the gun in $kg$? Ignore air resistance and assume the acceleration due to gravity $g = 9.8 \,m/s^2$.
