A man of mass 70 kg stands on a weighing scale in a lift which is moving (a) upwards with a uniform speed of 10 m s^1 (b) downwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 m s^2, upwards with a uniform acceleration of 5 m s-^1z. What would be the readings on the scale in each case? What would be the reading if the lift mechanism failed and it hurtled down freely under gravity?

A boy standing on a stationary lift (open from above) throws a ball upwards with the maximum initial speed he can, equal to 49 m/s. How much time does the bail take to return to his hands? If the lift starts moving up with a uniform speed of 5 m/s and the boy again throws the ball up with the maximum speed he can, how long does the ball take to return to his hands?

A lift is accelerated upward. Will the apparent weight of a person inside the lift increases, decreases or remains the same relative to its real weight? If the lift is going with uniform speed, then?

A monkey of mass 40 kg climbs on a rope (Fig. 5.20) which can stand a maximum tension of 600 N. In which of the following cases will the rope break: the monkey (a) climbs up with an acceleration of 6 m s^2 (b) climbs down with an acceleration of 4 m s^2 (c) climbs up with a uniform speed of 5 m s^1 (d) falls down the rope nearly freely under gravity? (Ignore the mass of the rope).

A straight highway leads to the foot of a tower.A man standing at the top of the tower observed a car at an angle of depression of 30^@ ,which is approaching the foot of the tower with a uniform speed.Six seconds later,the angle of depression of the car is found to be 60^@ .Find the time taken by the car to reach the foot of the tower from this point.
