Answer: GREATER

Explanation:when elevator does not move it reads weight of the person . when elevator moves up let apparent weight be F . W acts downwards so net force is F-W

HENCE

F-W =ma

F= ma+W

AS a= 1 m/s^2

F = m (1)+W

HENCE GREATER

What force is needed to accelerate a 1,000-kilogram car from a stop to 5 m/s/s?
solong [7]
That depends on how soon you want it to reach 5 m/s/s. Without friction, ANY force will accelerate the car, like a mosquito pushing on it, but a Space Shuttle booster will accelerate it at a greater rate.

Two cars collide inelastically and stick together after the collision. Before the collision, the magnitudes of their momenta are
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

The correct answer is

p = p₁ + p₂

Explanation:

Newton's second law states that force = the change of momentum produced therefore since the collision is inelstic then the change of momentum of each car is p₁ and  p₂ and the force of the collition is proportional to p₁ + p₂ that is

F ∝ p₁ + p₂ and since force is directly proportional to p we have

p = p₁ + p₂
