MCQ

A stone is released from an elevator going up with an acceleration a. The acceleration of the stone after the release is:

A
a upward.
B
(g - a) upward.
C
(g - a) downward.
D
g downward.

✓

Answer

g downward

Explanation:

Gravity is the only force acting on the stone when it is released. And, we know that gravity is always in the downward direction.
