A 72 kg man stands on a bathroom scale in an elevator. Starting from rest at the top floor, the elevator descends, attaining its maximum speed of 1.20 m/s in 0.80 s. It travels with this constant speed for the next 5.00 s. The elevator then slows down for 1.50 s and comes to rest at ground level. a)What is the acceleration of the man during the first 0.80 s? Answer in units of m/s2 and use the upward direction...
