$A$ body of mass $4 \, kg$ weighs $4.8 \, kg$ when suspended in a moving lift. The acceleration of the lift is

$A$ boy of $50 \, kg$ is in a lift moving down with an acceleration of $9.8 \, m/s^2$. The apparent weight of the boy is ........... $N$ $(g = 9.8 \, m/s^2)$.

What is weightlessness? Explain with examples.

$A$ body of mass $2 \, kg$ is hung on a spring balance mounted vertically in a lift. If the lift descends with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity $g$,and if the lift moves up with a constant velocity of $2 \, m/s$,the reading on the balance will be ......... $kg$.

$A$ piece of wire is bent in the shape of a parabola $y=kx^2$ ($y$-axis vertical) with a bead of mass $m$ on it. The bead can slide on the wire without friction. It stays at the lowest point of the parabola when the wire is at rest. The wire is now accelerated parallel to the $x$-axis with a constant acceleration $a$. The distance of the new equilibrium position of the bead,where the bead can stay at rest with respect to the wire,from the $y$-axis is

An object of mass $5\, kg$ is attached to the hook of a spring balance and the balance is suspended vertically from the roof of a lift. The reading of the spring balance when the lift is going up with an acceleration of $0.25\, m/s^2$ is ......... $N$ $(g = 10\, m/s^2)$
