$A$ block of mass $m$ is kept in an elevator which starts moving downward with an acceleration $a$ as shown in the figure. The block is observed by two observers $A$ and $B$ for a time interval $t_0$. The observer $B$ is on the ground (inertial frame). What is the work done by the pseudo force on the block as observed by observer $B$?

$A$ container of mass $m$ is pulled by a constant force $F$. Inside the container,a second block of the same mass $m$ is placed,connected to the wall by a massless spring of constant $k$. Initially,the spring is at its natural length. Find the velocity of the container at the instant the compression in the spring is maximum for the first time.

$A$ spring balance is attached to the ceiling of a lift. $A$ man hangs his bag on the spring and the spring balance reads $49 \,N$, when the lift is stationary. If the lift moves downward with an acceleration of $5 \,m/s^2$, the reading of the spring balance will be $(g = 9.8 \,m/s^2)$. (in $\,N$)
