When the elevator is going up (assuming the elevator is acceleration)

When the elevator is accelerating downwards, the total gravitational force would be larger.

If the elevator is accelerating upwards, then the gravitation force would be smaller, thus the tension in the string would be smaller.

What orientation of velocity and acceleration will cause something to initially speed up?
Temka [501]
-- If acceleration and velocity are in the same direction,
then the object is speeding up.

-- If acceleration and velocity are in opposite directions,
then the object is slowing down.

-- If acceleration is perpendicular to velocity, then the object
is moving on a circular curve at constant speed.
