Balloons are often filled with helium gas because it weighs only about one-seventh of what air weighs under identical conditions. The buoyancy force, which can be expressed as , will push the balloon upward. If the balloon has a diameter of and carries two people, each, find the acceleration of the balloon when it is first released. Assume the density of air is , and neglect the weight of the ropes and the cage.
