The weight of a 500 -kg object is 4900 N. (a) When the object is on a moving elevator, its measured weight could be (1) zero, (2) between zero and $4900 \mathrm{~N}$, (3) more than $4900 \mathrm{~N},$ (4) all of the preceding. Why? (b) Describe the motion if the object's measured weight is only $4000 \mathrm{~N}$ in a moving elevator.
