Suppose the ceiling in the previous problem is that the elevator which is going up with an acceleration of `2.0 m/s^2`. Find the elongations.

Explanation

To solve the problem of finding the elongation of a spring when a block is suspended in an elevator that is accelerating upwards, we can follow these steps:

### Step 1: Understand the Forces Acting on the Block
When the elevator is accelerating upwards, two main forces act on the block:
1. The gravitational force (weight) acting downwards, which is given by \( W = mg \).
2. The pseudo force acting downwards due to the upward acceleration of the elevator, which is given by \( F_{\text{pseudo}} = ma \).

### Step 2: Calculate the Weight of the Block
