Answer:

The magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is 12 N

Explanation:

Given;

mass of the garbage, m = 10.0 kg

acceleration of the elevator, a = 1.2 m/s²

The magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is given by;

F = ma

F = 10 x 1.2

F = 12 N

Therefore, the magnitude of the force the garbage exerts on the floor of the service elevator is 12 N
