A spring-operated platform scale which indicates mass in kilograms is placed on the floor of an elevator. Neglect the mass of the platform scale. When the elevator is at rest, a man stands on the scale, which indicates 80 kg. Determine (a) the acceleration of the elevator when the scale indicates 100 kg; (b) the reading of the scale when the elevator has an acceleration of 4 mps2 downward; and (c) the tension in the supporting cable for the elevator during the acceleration period if the total mass of the elevator, man and scale is 800 kg. (d) At what value of acceleration of the elevator would the person appear to be weightless?

Steps in solving problems in kinetics
1. Determine carefully hat data are given and hat is required in the problem.2. Draw the free-body diagram for each body involved in the problem. Indicate in
the diagram all the forces acting on the body. These forces ill include both the known applied forces acting on the particle, and the unknown reaction force exerted on the particle by the immediate supporting foundation which is imagined to be removed. Friction forces must always be directed to opposite relative motion.
3. In order to ensure that friction forces oppose the motion, determine the direction of motion if not evident or specified.
4. Determine the kinematic relations between the bodies involved in a connected system.
5. Select the x-axis as positive in the direction of the initial motion and apply ƩFx =max and ƩFy =0
6. Solve for the unknowns, using such additional equations of kinematics as may be required to determine the relations among displacement, velocity and time.
In the system of connected bodies as shown in the figure, the coefficient of kinetic friction is 0.25 under bodies B and C. Determine the acceleration of each body and the tension in the cord supporting A.
