$A$ 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
    $\frac{ma}{g-a}$
