Topic: Dynamics
Concepts: Equivalence principle, Fictitious forces
Solution:
In the noninertial frame of the car, we add a centrifugal force directed outwards from the center of the circle. Combining the fictitious force with gravity,
We find the effective gravity points in the lower left direction. The balloon floats in the opposite direction so the answer is D.
