The weight of that person if the lift descends with uniform downward acceleration of 1.8ms−21 . 8m{s}^{- 2} will be NN. [g=10ms−2]\left[g = 10m{s}^{- 2}\right]A person standing on a spring balance inside a stationary lift measures 60kg . The weight of that person if the liftA person standing on a spring balance inside a stationary lift measures 60kg . The weight of that person if the lift

Correct answer

492

Step-by-step solution

A person standing on a spring balance inside a stationary lift measures 60kg . The weight of that person if the lift

When lift is at rest

N=mgN = mg

⇒60×10=600N⇒ 60 \times 10 = 600N

When lift moves with downward acceleration. In frame of lift pseudo force will be in upward direction.

A person standing on a spring balance inside a stationary lift measures 60kg . The weight of that person if the lift

N′=M(g−a){N}^{'} = M\left(g - a\right)

⇒60(10−1.8)⇒ 60\left(10 - 1 . 8\right)

N′⇒492N{N}^{'} ⇒ 492N
