Aperson weighing 504 newtons enters an elevator and stands on a scale which reads his weight in newtons. the elevator starts to accelerate upward at a rate of 8.53 m/s^2. what does the scale read while the elevator is accelerating upward? (use g = 9.80 m/s^2)

942.68 N

Explanation:

Weight of man = 504 N = W

a = Acceleration = 8.53 m/s²

g = Acceleration due to gravity = 9.80 m/s²

Mass of man

Weight shown when elevator is being accelerated

Scale reading while the elevator is accelerating upward is 942.68 N.

d

explanation:

i think the answer is d. but im not sure!
