    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
    digAnsr:   d
    Ans : (d) g downward
    Gravity is the only force acting on the stone when it is released. And, we know that gravity is always in the downward direction.
