Question

You are accelerating upwards in an elevator when the net force on you increases. What happens to the acceleration

Answer 1

the acceleration of the elevator is increasing

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise we propose the solution using Newton's second law

F -W = m a

F = m (g + a)

If the net force increases, it implies that the acceleration of the elevator is increasing, since the acceleration of gravity is constant as the ascent is accelerating.
