A man weighing 60 kg is in a lift moving down with an acceleration of 1.8" ms"^(-2) . The force exerted by the floor on him is

A man of mass 50 kg is standing in an elevator. If elevator is moving up with an acceleration (g)/(3) then work done by normal reaction of elevator floor on man when elevator moves by a distance 12 m is (g=10 m//s^(2)) :-

A block of mass 2 kg rests on the floor of an elevator , which is moving down with an acceleration 'g' , then the apparent weight of the block is [ take g = 10 m//s^(2) ]

On the floor of an elevator a block of mass 50 kg is placed on which another block of mass 20 kg is also placed. The elevator is moving up with a constant acceleration 1.5m//s^(2) Force exerted by 20 kg block on the 50 kg block is nearly:
