It is a kind of trick question. When the elevator is up _accelerating_ would d) more than the actual weight, but because the elevator is moving with constant velocity, we can examine the context in which the lift is available as Inertial Reference System.

In any case, the answer is: a) the amount of their actual weight.

It would certainly be less than the weight ...... because, as you go The higher the value of "g" decreases !!!!!
