Detailed Solution

When lift is moving upward with on acceleration a = g the normal reaction experienced by surface of mass ‘m’ will be

N=m(g+a)=2mg

Maximum static frictional force =μN

=μ(2mg)=2μmg

As applied force is less than max static frictional force. Hence mass will have acceleration in horizontal direction zero
