Take upward direction to be the positive y-direction. If m is the mass thrown out, then the equation of motion for before and after the mass m is thrown out are
Ma = F – Mg
(M–m)a = F – (M–m)g
Solving the two equations m =2ma/(a+g)
Ma = F – Mg
(M–m)a = F – (M–m)g
Solving the two equations m =2ma/(a+g)
