Answer:
660 N
Explanation:
From the question,
When an Elevator moves downward,
R = m(g+a).................. Equation 1
Where R = apparent weight of the person, m = mass of the person, g = accleration due to gravity, a = acceleration of the elevator
Given: m = 60 kg, g = 10 m/s², a = 1 m/s²
Substitute these values into equation 1
R = 60(10+1)
R = 60(11)
R = 660 N.
Hence the apparent weight of the person is 660 N
