A ball is dropped in a lift moving up with an acceleration a. What will be effective acceleration of the ball in lift frame if gravitational acceleration of the earth is 'g'? Correct Answer a<sub>eff </sub>= a + g
CONCEPT:
- Effective acceleration in a moving lift:
- When lift moving upward: Effective acceleration experienced by ball in lift frame.
aeff = a + g
Where a is the acceleration of lift, g is gravitational acceleration, and aeff is effective acceleration.
- When lift moving downward: Effective acceleration experienced by ball in lift frame.
aeff = g - a
Where a is the acceleration of lift, g is gravitational acceleration, and aeff is effective acceleration.
EXPLANATION:
Given that acceleration of lift with respect to the earth or ground = a
Acceleration of lift with respect to the earth or ground = acceleration of lift - acceleration of the earth = a
aeff - g = a
aeff = a + g
So the correct answer is option 1.
