Why in free falling elevator your head does not strike with the roof?
In a free-falling elevator, both you AND the elevator are falling at the same rate of acceleration with respect to the gravitational pull of the Earth. Therefore, since both you and the elevator both accelerate at the same rate, making your velocities increase at the same rate, and you both start off with the same initial velocity, you both travel at roughly the same velocity relative to each other during the entire descent, meaning that your head should not hit the roof of the elevator at any point.
Why can't you jump in a falling elevator?
Jumping in a falling elevator won't help because you and the elevator are both falling at the same speed due to gravity, so jumping won't change anything. It's safer to lie flat on the floor and protect your head and neck during a fall.
When object in elevator and elevator is falling downward then gravity is acting on it but why it is said that in this condition object is weightless?
In a falling elevator, both the elevator and the object inside are accelerating downwards at the same rate under gravity. This creates the sensation of weightlessness, as the object is not experiencing any resistance or contact force from the elevator floor. However, gravity is still acting on the object, causing it to accelerate downwards at the same rate as the elevator.
If a cable snaps in an elevator and starts falling will the person inside float?
No, the person inside the elevator will not float. Objects in freefall experience weightlessness, but the person will still accelerate downward due to gravity. The experience will feel like weightlessness, but they are still subject to gravity's pull.
What happens if an elevator falls and you jump inside?
If an elevator is falling and you jump inside, you will still be moving at the same speed as the elevator. Jumping will not change the outcome of the fall. It is safer to brace yourself and try to protect your head and body during the fall.

Was Jim Brown in a falling elevator?
yes
What are the chances of a boy falling off a boat and surviving?
Quite high regardy such things like the tempetature of the or where the boat was. If it was a cold water and the water was cold hympohermia could kick in. But your chances are high if survival

Why does your stomach feel as if it is falling when an elevator first?
because of the gravity
Why are astronants weightless in space?
The astronaut, space ship and everything in it are all falling at the same speed (falling around the Earth is called ORBIT). If everything is falling at the same speed, they are effectively weightless. Its like falling in an elevator, if everything is falling at the same speed you will appear to be floating around the elevator. Until it reaches the basement.
Inside a freely-falling elevator would there be no apparent weight for you?
Yes, inside a freely-falling elevator, you would experience apparent weightlessness. This is because the elevator and everything inside it, including you, would be falling at the same rate due to gravity, creating the sensation of weightlessness.
What was the impact of the elevator safety brake?
The impact was that, it helped people travel up in the elevator to a high floor instead of walking, without the risk of the cable snapping and the elevator falling. :D
What are the chances of falling out of a kayak?
60% to 40%
Can you to survive in a falling lift?
No. It is impossible to jump up to save your life and outrun the downwards pull of a falling lift, as in Mythbusters' Elevator Of Death
What is the period of a simple pendulum 80 cm long a- on earth and b- when it is in a freely falling elevator?
none. when there is gravity T=2pi square root of L/g but in a freely falling elevator, there is no accelerate so it doesn't have period the answer is none
