The magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator is 90m/s^2
Due to Newton's Law ∑ Forces in direction of motion is equal to mass
multiplied by the acceleration
We have here two forces 5000 N in direction of motion and the weight of the person in opposite direction of motion
The weight of the person is his mass multiplied by the acceleration of gravity
So ,
W = mg , where m is the mass and g is the acceleration of gravity
m = 50 kg and g = 9.8 m/s²
Substitute these values in the rule above
W = 50 × 9.8 = 490 N
The scale reads 5000 N
F = 5000 N , W = 490 N , m = 50kg
F - W = ma
5000 - 490 = 50 a
4510 = 50 a
Divide both sides by 50
a = 90.2 m/s²
Hence the acceleration is 90m/s^2

The Law of reflection would still hold even off a curved surface. Since the angles are measured from the normal, which is perpendicular to the surface, curved surfaces don't matter. This is basis of curved mirrors such as concave and convex
Answer:
No. The protostellar cloud spins faster in the collapsing stage (stage 1) and becomes much slower in the contraction stage (stage 2)
Explanation:
Once the cloud is so dense that the heat which is being produced in its center cannot easily escape, pressure rapidly rises, and catches up with the weight, or whatever external force is causing the cloud to collapse, and the cloud becomes stable, as a protostellar cloud.
The protostellar cloud will become more dense over thousands of years. This stage of decreasing size is known as a contraction, rather than a collapse. In the contraction stage the cloud has become much slower, and because weight and pressure are more or less in balance. In the first stage of formation, the decrease of size is very rapid, and compressive forces completely overwhelm the pressure of the gas, and we say that the cloud is collapsing.
