Standing on a spring scale in an elevator

Reference no: EM13687636

Consider a 80.0-kg man standing on a spring scale in an elevator. Starting from rest, the elevator ascends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.46 m/s in 0.900 s. It travels with this constant speed for the next 5.00 s. The elevator then undergoes a uniform acceleration in the negative y direction for 1.90 s and comes to rest.
