Which of the following describes an increasing weight experience in an elevator?

An increasing weight experience in an elevator occurs when a person feels heavier than their normal weight. This sensation is commonly perceived when the elevator is accelerating upward. When the elevator moves upward and speeds up, the net force acting on a person inside the elevator increases, creating a sensation of increased weight. This happens because the upward acceleration adds to the force of gravity, leading to a greater normal force exerted by the elevator floor on the person.

In contrast, when moving downward, if the elevator is speeding up (moving downward and speeding up) or slowing down, the net force is affected differently, and the person may feel lighter or equal to their normal weight. When stationary, the only forces acting are gravity and the normal force, resulting in a normal weight sensation without any change.
