Suppose a person with a mass of 60 kg is in an elevator standing on a scale that reads in Newtons. Use a free body diagrams of the scale and the person to determine what the scale would read for the following situations:
A. If the elevator is descending at 4.9 m/s.
B. If the elevator has a downward acceleration of 4.9 m/s2 .
C. If the elevator has an upward acceleration of 4.9 m/s2 .
explain WHY
Homework Answers
In first case, acceleration is zero as the velocity is constant,
in other two cases we have used FBDs and force equation to reach
answer

You are standing in an elevator with a 20.0 kg child on your shoulders. The elevator is traveling upward at a velocity of 2.00 m/s and an acceleration of -1.00 m/s2 . Your mass is 60.0 kg; the elevator mass is 1200.0 kg. 1) What is the tension in the cable that supports the elevator? For this question, I found that the tension was smaller than the downward force. How can this be possible with the elevator having an upward...
