Which outcome occurs in an elevator undergoing constant upwards acceleration?

💡 Explanation

The elevator simulates a gravitational field due to Einstein's equivalence principle. Acceleration creates a fictitious force mimicking gravity, therefore apparent local gravity increases, rather than changes to mass or time dilation that would require relativistic speeds or extreme gravitational fields.
