Please I need this solved as soon as possible
F = ma
weight due to
gravity: 10g
elevator: 10*2
so, what do you think?
Sorry the weight is 80kg.
M(g+a)
80(10+2)
=960
Buh the problem is that the correct answer is 96
And it's seem confusing
If the mass is 80, the force on the scale is about 960 Newtons, not 96
M(g+a)
80(10+2)
960
960รท10
=96kg
It's force so we'll divide by 10 so as to make the answer KG
