Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:
Two blocks are stacked on top of each other on the floor of an elevator. For each of the following situations, select the correct relationship between the magnitudes of the two forces given.
The elevator is moving downward at a constant speed.
The magnitude of the force of the bottom block on the top block is _____ the magnitude of the force of the earth on the top block.
Answer:
The magnitude of the force of the bottom block on top block is equal to the magnitude of the force of the top block on bottom block.
Step-by-step explanation:
As the elevator is descending, there is only a normal force being applied to the lower surface of the block. This force has a magnitude equal to the force of the upper block, because the only acceleration that is acting in this case is the force of gravity. From that force, the resulting force is zero.
