Solution 1

To find the acceleration 'a' with which the elevator descends, we can use Newton's second law of motion.

Step 1: Identify the forces acting on the block of mass M. In this case, we have the force of gravity acting downwards (mg) and the normal force exerted by the weighing machine acting upwards ( Knowee AI is a powerful AI-powered study tool designed to help you to solve study problem.
