उत्तर
the first is valid but not the second
For a point inside the elevator, pressure can be defined as `P=lim_(triangles->0)"F"/(triangle"S")`. It is independent of the acceleration of the elevator.
The modified form of the second equation, which will be valid in the given case, is given by P1 - P2 = ρ(g+a0)z
Here, acceleration a0 (say) due to elevator accelerating upwards is also taken into account.
