A person is standing inside lift just when the lift starts the person drop a stone from height of 25 m .If it takes 2 sec to reach the floor of the lift .Then find the acceleration of lift
Added by Alec H.
Step 1
We can use the equation of motion: \[ s = ut + \frac{1}{2}at^2 \] where s is the distance (25m), u is the initial velocity (0 m/s as the stone is dropped), a is the acceleration, and t is the time. Show more…

An elevator is going up with an upward acceleration of $0.2 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2}$. At the instant when its velocity is $2 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$ a stone is projected upwards from its floor with a speed of $2 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-1}$ at an angle of $30^{\circ}$ with horizontal, relative to the elevator $\left(\mathrm{g}=9.8 \mathrm{~m} \mathrm{~s}^{-2}\right)$. The distance travelled by the floor of the lift from the time the stone was projected to the time when the stone hits the floor, is (a) $0.404 \mathrm{~m}$ (b) $0.400 \mathrm{~m}$ (c) $0.412 \mathrm{~m}$ (d) $0.416 \mathrm{~m}$
A stone falls from a building and reaches the ground 2.5 seconds later. How high is the building ? (g = 9.8 m/s^2)
