Question

A hot air balloon exerts a force of 1200 N while

lifting a load of 800 N. Which free-body force
diagram depicts the forces involved?

Answer 1

Answer:c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

C

Step-by-step explanation:

For the explained scenario in the free body force diagram definitely the two forces 1200 N and 800 N should present as they are the acting forces

So A & D rules out.

Then you must think of B & C.

You also know that the weight of the load is always acting downwards as that force is generated by gravitational field of Earth. So 800 N should be downwards not upwards. That rules out B.

So answer is C
