A) The lift was in constant motion upwards
B) The lift was in constant motion downwards
C) The lift while in motion suddenly stopped
D) The lift while in motion upwards suddenly stopped

Solution :
When lift falls with acceleration\[(a)\]or rises with retardation\[(-a),\]then a person apparently loses weight. \[R-mg=-ma\] \[\Rightarrow \] \[R=m(g-a)\] In the given case scale reading changes from 60 kg to 50 kg for a while and then comes back to 60 kg mark. It happens while the lift in motion upwards suddenly stops.You need to login to perform this action.
