Answer:
The acceleration is in 2 D as in between east and south.
Explanation:
mass, m = 50 kg
acceleration, a = 0.25 m/s^2 horizontal
acceleration of elevator, a' = 1 m/s^2 downwards
When a person on the ground the resultant acceleration of the person with respect to the ground is between east and south direction so the path os parabolic in nature. It graph is shown below:
