Two blocks of masses $2 \,kg$ and $4 \,kg$ are hanging with the help of a massless string passing over an ideal pulley inside an elevator. The elevator is moving upward with an acceleration $\frac{g}{2}$. The tension in the string connected between the blocks will be .......... $N$ (Take $g=10 \,m/s^2$).

Imagine a person standing on a weighing machine placed inside an elevator. The elevator first accelerates, then moves with a constant velocity, and finally decelerates to stop. The maximum and minimum weight recorded are $80 \ kg$ and $64 \ kg$, respectively. Find out the true mass of that person considering $g = 10 \ m/s^2$. (in $kg$)

$A$ man is standing in a lift which goes up and comes down with the same constant acceleration. If the ratio of the apparent weights in the two cases is $2 : 1$,then the acceleration of the lift is ......... $m/s^2$.

$A$ person of $60 \,kg$ mass is in a lift which is coming down such that the man exerts a force of $150 \,N$ on the floor of the lift. Then the acceleration of the lift is $\left(g=10 \,ms^{-2}\right)$ (in $\,ms^{-2}$)

$A$ mass $M$ is placed on a smooth wedge of angle $\theta$ resting on a frictionless surface. To keep the mass $M$ at rest relative to the wedge,the wedge must be given a horizontal acceleration $a$ equal to:
