The weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.

Weight of the person in the elevator

The weight of the person in the elevator is calculated as follows;

When the person is going up

F = ma + mg

F = m(a + g)

where;

  • a is acceleration of the person
  • g is acceleration due to gravity

When the person is going down

F = mg - ma

F = m(g - a)

Thus, the weight of a person increase when the elevator is going up.
