Answer: 708 N

Explanation:

Given

At rest, Elevator reads 588 N

When it starts moving upward at 2\ m/s^2, apparent weight changes

i.e. weight can be given by

\Rightarrow W'=m(g+a)\\\Rightarrow W'=mg+mg\cdot \dfrac{a}{g}\\\\\Rightarrow W'=W\left(1+\dfrac{a}{g}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W'=588\left(1+\dfrac{2}{9.8}\right)\\\\\Rightarrow W'=707.99\approx 708\ N

The apparent weight is 708 N
