..You get in an elevator, and step onto a weighing scale. You also recall that your normal weight is
625N.
A. If the elevator has an acceleration of magnitude 2.50m/s?, what does the scale read as you go
UP inside the elevator?
b.
What does the scale read if as you go DOWN with an acceleration of 3.33m/s??
On planet X, a 5.0 X 101 kg bar can be lifted with a force of just 180 N. a. What is the acceleration of gravity on planet X?
