Given that weight increases (740N to 830N) as soon as the elevator starts moving from rest.
So the elevator is accelerating and going upwards.
The scale will decrease if the elevator was going downwards.

9.1 A 740 N person is standing on a scale in the elevator. As the elevator...
A child with a mass of 30 kg is standing on a spring scale in an elevator. If the spring scale reads 360 N, what are the magnitude and direction of the acceleration of the elevator at this time? The acceleration due to gravity is 10 m/s2.
Suppose a person with a mass of 60 kg is in an elevator standing on a scale that reads in Newtons. Use a free body diagrams of the scale and the person to determine what the scale would read for the following situations: A. If the elevator is descending at 4.9 m/s. B. If the elevator has a downward acceleration of 4.9 m/s2 . C. If the elevator has an upward acceleration of 4.9 m/s2 . explain WHY
Question 8 10 pts A person stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale briefly reads only 0.72 of his/her regular weight. Calculate the acceleration of the elevator and find the direction of acceleration. (Choose upward as the positive direction and express the direction of the acceleration using the sign of the result, which must be in units of mis and include 2 digit after the decimal point. Maximum of 5%...
A woman stands on a bathroom scale in a motionless elevator. When the elevator begins to move, the scale briefly reads only 0.77 of her regular weight. Calculate the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator.
A person who normally weighs 250 pounds is standing on a scale inside an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with a speed of 7 m/s and then begins to decelerate at a rate of 5 m/s2(0.5 g). What is the reading on the scale before the elevator begins to decelerate? What is the reading on the scale during the deceleration?
You are standing on a scale in an elevator initially at rest and the scale reads 71.2 kg. The elevator begins to ascend and accelerates at a rate of 3.57 m/s 2 . What would the scale read (in kg) when the elevator is moving upwards and accelerating?
A man is standing on a scale inside an elevator. As the elevator starts to go up with an acceleration a, the scale reads 832 N. The mass of the man is m = 60 kg. (a) Which of the free body diagrams below displays all the forces acting on the man with the correct relative magnitudes and directions?
A 140 lb person rides in elevator while standing on a scale that reads in slugs. For each part below, draw a free body diagram, write the equations for Newton’s second law and solve. a.) If the elevator accelerates upward at 2.53 ft/s^2, what is the reading on the scale? b.) If the elevator accelerates downward at 1.53 ft/s^2, what is the reading on the scale? c.) If the elevator moves upward at a constant velocity of 2.53 ft/s, what...
You (mass = 75 kg) are riding in an elevator while standing on a scale. As the elevator begins to rise, you notice that the scale reading briefly increases to 785 N. What is the acceleration of the elevator during this time? Assuming it has three times the acceleration as it slows to rest at the top floor, what does the scale read as it slows?
if a person was standing on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating down with 1 m/s2 the reading on the scale is 4.5kg DURIN THE DECELERATION OF THE ELEVETOR What is the normal force? and what is the mass of the person, thanks
