If A person weighing 75 kg stands on a scale on a elevator what will it read if the elevator is at rest?

well I would say using newtonian mechanics he would weight as F=M x g, 75x9.7 which equals 727.5 newtons.


If you are standing in an elevator that is moving up at a steady speed of 1 meter per second what is your motion relative to the elevator?

If you are standing in an elevator moving up at a steady speed of 1 meter per second, your motion relative to the elevator is considered at rest. This means that you are moving along with the elevator at the same speed and direction, so you do not feel any relative motion inside the elevator.

What if your mass is 75kg. You stand on a scale in an elevator that is about to go down. Starting from rest the elevator accelerates at 2.0ms squared for 2.0s then travels at a constant speed. What do?

While the elevator accelerates downward, you will experience a greater force than your actual weight, resulting in a higher reading on the scale. Once the elevator reaches a constant speed, the scale will show your actual weight, as the net force on you is then equal to your weight.


How does your weight mass and the normal force exerted by the floor change when you are in an elevator that starts from rest and accelerates upward?

When you are in an elevator that starts from rest and accelerates upward, your weight (mass times gravitational acceleration) remains constant because your mass does not change. However, the normal force exerted by the floor increases during the upward acceleration. This is because the elevator's acceleration adds to the gravitational force, resulting in a greater normal force acting on you, which can be felt as an increase in apparent weight.

Is elevator an adverb?

No. The word "elevator" can be a noun ("Get on the elevator!") or more rarely an adjective ("Check out my new elevator shoes.") *uses such as elevator shoes or elevator shaft may be considered a noun adjunct rather than an adjective


How your weight mass and the normal force exerted by the floor change when you are in an elevator that starts from rest and accelerates upward?

When an elevator accelerates upward from rest, your weight (the force due to gravity acting on you) remains constant, as it is determined by your mass and the acceleration due to gravity. However, the normal force exerted by the floor increases because it must counteract both your weight and provide additional force due to the upward acceleration of the elevator. Consequently, you would feel heavier during the upward acceleration, as the normal force exceeds your weight.
