Question

1 Poin Question 4 A 85-kg man stands in an elevator that has a downward acceleration of 2 m/s2. The force exerted by him on the floor is about: (Assume g = 9.8 m/s2) А ON B 663 N C) 833 N D) 1003 N​

Answer 1

D) 1003 N​

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Mass of man = 85 kg

Acceleration of elevator = 2 m/s²

Acceleration due to gravity, g = 9.8 m/s²

To find the force exerted by the man on the floor;

Force = mg + ma
