As the elevator moves upward, the reading on the scale will temporarily increase. This is because the scale measures the force exerted by the person standing on it, which includes their weight and an additional force due to the upward acceleration of the elevator.

What happens to the velocity of objects moving upward?

The following description covers the region near the surface of the earth ... the neighborhood we live in. It also talks about objects that are just coasting, i.e. no strings attached, no propellers, jets, rockets etc. An object moving upward with no force on it other than gravity will 'decelerate', that is, its speed will decrease at the rate of 32 ft per second slower every second, until its upward speed is zero. From that instant, it will begin falling downward, just as if it had been dropped from that height, and its downward speed will begin to grow, at the rate of 32 ft per second faster every second.


What happens to an ice cube after 5 minutes in a warm place?

The ice cube will begin to melt due to the warm temperature in its surroundings. It will gradually turn into liquid water as it absorbs heat energy from the environment.


What happens to the volume of an object when exposed to heat?

When exposed to heat, the molecules of an object begin to move faster and spread out, causing the object to expand. This expansion leads to an increase in volume of the object.


What happens to your energy when you die?

When a person dies, their body stops producing energy and their cells begin to break down. The energy stored in their body is released as heat and eventually dissipates into the environment.
