A 62-kg man standing on a scale in an elevator notes that as the elevator rises, the scale reads 821 N. What is the acceleration of the elevator?

Acceleration of the elevator = 13.242 m/s2.

Explanation:

Force is defined as the push or pull on an object with mass in kg that causes a change velocity. Force as a vector means it has both magnitude and direction.

Mathematically,

F = M*a

Where

F = force in Newton.

M = mass of the object in kg.

a = acceleration due to gravity in 9.81 m/s2.

Acceleration of the elevator = 821/62

= 13.242 m/s2.

the answer is to check all of them! they all apply well at least i think so!
