I'm trying to make a weighing scale that works in a lift. I'm using load cells to measure the weight, let's say it's F. Then I use that weight F and g which I know is 9,81 m/s2 to calculate the mass of the object like this:
F = m·g <=> m = F/g
This works when the lift is in rest (or when moving at a constant speed), but when it accelerates the weight F increases and because of that the mass also increases. Is there a way to compensate this weight(/extra force) due to acceleration?
