A body of mass $2\, kg$ is hung on a spring balance mounted vertically in a lift. If the lift descends with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity $‘g’$, if the lift moves up with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity, the reading on the spring balance will be .......... $kg$

A body of mass $2\, kg$ is hung on a spring balance mounted vertically in a lift. If the lift descends with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity $‘g’$, if the lift moves up with an acceleration equal to the acceleration due to gravity, the reading on the spring balance will be .......... $kg$
When lift moves upward then reading of the spring balance,
$R = m(g + a) = 2(g + g) = 4g\;N = 4\;kg$ [As $a = g$]
