Q125 / 180 · KCET 2017 · Physics
A body of mass \( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \), is suspended using a spring balance inside a lift at rest. If the lift starts
falling freely, the reading of the spring balance is
falling freely, the reading of the spring balance is
- A\( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \)
- B> \( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \)
- C\( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \)
- Correct answerD\(=0 \)
Solution
Given, a body of mass \( 50 \mathrm{~kg} \) is suspended using spring inside a lift.
If lift falls freely, then there is a condition of weightlessness, thus the reading of the spring balance is \( 0 \).
If lift falls freely, then there is a condition of weightlessness, thus the reading of the spring balance is \( 0 \).
Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
