Reference no: EM13719099

Solve the all parts of following question given below:

Question: An elevator undergoes constant upward acceleration, taking it from rest to 12.8m/s in 4.0 s. A 60kg man stands on a scale in the elevator.

Part A: What does the scale read during the upward acceleration?

Part B: Nearing the top floor, the elevator slows from 12.8m/s to rest in the last 22.4 m of upward travel. Assuming constant acceleration, what's the scale reading during this period?

Show all work, use additional paper if necessary for above question.
