The apparent weight of a girl of mass $30 \ kg$ when she is in a lift moving vertically upwards with an acceleration of $2 \ m \ s^{-2}$ is (Acceleration due to gravity $= 10 \ m \ s^{-2}$) (in $N$)

$A$ coin is dropped in a lift. It takes time $t_1$ to reach the floor when the lift is stationary. It takes time $t_2$ when the lift is moving up with constant acceleration. Then:

The weight of a man in a stationary lift is $w_1$ and when it is moving downwards with uniform acceleration $a$ is $w_2$. If the ratio $w_1 : w_2 = 4 : 3$,then the value of $a$ is ($g =$ acceleration due to gravity).

An object dropped in a stationary lift takes time $t_1$ to reach the floor. It takes time $t_2$ when the lift is moving up with constant acceleration. Then

$A$ man is standing in a lift which goes up and comes down with the same constant acceleration. If the ratio of the apparent weights in the two cases is $2 : 1$,then the acceleration of the lift is ......... $m/s^2$.
