Explanation / Answer

here,

mass , m = 88.3 kg

a)

accelration , a = 1.5 m/s^2 upwards

the apparent weight , W = m * ( g + a)

W = 88.3 * ( 9.81 + 1.5) N

W = 998.7 N

b)

   at constant speed

    the apparent weight , W = m * ( g + a)

W = 88.3 * ( 9.81 + 0) N

W = 866.2 N

c)

accelration , a = 1.73 m/s^2 downwards

the apparent weight , W = m * ( g - a)

W = 88.3 * ( 9.81 - 1.73) N

W = 713.5 N
