$A$ man is standing on a weighing machine placed in a lift. When stationary,his weight is recorded as $40 \, kg$. If the lift is accelerated upwards with an acceleration of $2 \, m/s^2$,then the weight recorded in the machine will be .......... $kg$ $(g = 10 \, m/s^2)$.

$A$ block of mass $m$ is kept in an elevator which starts moving downward with an acceleration $a$ as shown in the figure. The block is observed by two observers $A$ and $B$ for a time interval $t_0$. The observer $B$ is on the ground (inertial frame). What is the work done by the pseudo force on the block as observed by observer $B$?

In the figure,the reading of the spring balance will be $......\,N$ $\left[ g = 10\,m/s^2 \right]$.

$A$ lift is moving downwards with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity. $A$ body of mass $m$ kept on the floor of the lift is pulled horizontally. If the coefficient of friction is $\mu$,then the frictional resistance offered by the body is:
