Answer:

accelerating upward as it leaves the first floor.

Explanation:

When a person moves up in the elevator, the person's apparent weight is less then the actual weight. The person feels less weight than his or her actual weight. But just before the elevator starts moving the apparent weight of the person is equal to the normal or actual weight of the person before the movement. And after moving up in the elevator, the apparent weight is less than the actual weight, as one is moving against the force of gravity.

So in the context, the student exerts greatest force on the 1st floor as the elevator is accelerating upward when it leaves the first floor.

According to Newton's Third Law,same magnitude of work is done by water in opposite direction to push us back on our arms and legs. therefore water also does positive work on us.

4. incorrect

Explanation

The force exerted by a machine on an object is input force

5.  Incorrect

Explanation

when the input force is greater than the output force that time machine have mechanical advantage of less than 1.
