Beatrice and the Elevator Beatrice, a middle school student, is visiting a very tall office building and notices that she feels heavier when the elevator car is traveling up and lighter when the elevator car is travelling down. After making these observations, Beatrice comes back to the building and stands on a bathroom scale that measures her weight as she travels up and down in the elevator.

Explanation:

The question is not complete, here is the complete question

"Beatrice and the Elevator Beatrice, a middle school student, is visiting a very tall office building and notices that she feels heavier when the elevator car is traveling up and lighter when the elevator car is traveling down. After making these observations, Beatrice comes back to the building and stands on a bathroom scale that measures her weight as she travels up and down in the elevator.

1. . What question is Beatrice trying to answer?

2. What is one variable Beatrice could change in her investigation? What might she figure out if this

variable was changed"

1. Beatrice is trying to observe the influence of the elevator movement on her weight, Hence the question is "will the elevator  movement cause her weight to change"

therefore moving upward the reading on the scale will increase

Reading=mg+ma

downward

Reading will reduce

Reading=mg-ma

2. The independent variable is the acceleration due to gravity g=9.81m/s^2

while the dependent variables are

    i. The elevators acceleration

    ii. Beatrice's mass

hi i’m sorry to call us today so we will get back with y’all and we will have to do it haha omg was the day

the answer is a. the yacht traveled from the dock north to the 200-meter marker in the bay in less than 5 minutes, giving the passengers several more hours to fish.
