When going up in an elevator your weight reported by a scale increases?
Not really. It is not the fact of GOING UP that makes your apparent weight increase, but the fact that it is ACCELERATING UPWARD. For example, while the elevator goes up at a constant speed, your apparent weight will be the same as if it weren't moving.
How do pulleys do work in an elevator?
When you step into an elevator and close the door, you had passed through two doors and are now standing in a box (or the elevator car) inside a vertical passageway (called the lift shaft). One door is in the walls of the floor that you got off, and the other door is part of the car itself. Inside the shaft are hoisting cables attached to the top of the car. The cables run over a sheave (pulley) connected to an electric motor at the top of the shaft. The other end of the cables is connected to a heavy steel weight called a counterweight. When the car goes up, the counterweight goes down; when the car goes down, the counterweight goes up. How the counterweight reduces to a minimum the power needed to operate the elevator ... Weight of counterweight = Weight of the car + (about) ½ of its maximum passenger load So when the elevator operates, it needs power only to lift the weight of the extra passengers in the car; the rest of the weight is balanced by the counterweight.
What happens to your mass when the elevator goes down?
your mass is still the same
When a sheep first jumps out of a plane what happens to its speed?
because of weight it goes down faster
Why is it not possible to increase the wavelength and frequency at the same time?
Wavelength times frequency equals speed (of the wave). Therefore, unless you also change the speed, if wavelength goes up, frequency goes down, and vice versa.Wavelength times frequency equals speed (of the wave).

Why does your weight change outside of earth?
The lack of gravity pulling you down means that your weight goes down to almost nothing.
