Asked by maham237 @ in Physics viewed by 283 People


When a 45-kg person steps on a scale in an elevator, the scale reads a steady 480 N. Which of the following statements must be true?

Answered by maham237 @



Answer:

The elevator is accelerating upwards.

Explanation:

The scale should read the weight of the person, which is approximately 450N. Since the scale reads a higher value, the elevator must accelerate upwards to increase the normal force on the scale.
