   In the lift stopped at the floor, the bodies accelerate both towards=20   
   the floor and towards the center of the Earth (the two directions=20   
   coincide).   
      
   If the cables break and the elevator goes into free fall, the two=20   
   gravitational accelerations no longer coincide.   
      
   The bodies stop accelerating towards the floor but continue to=20   
   accelerate towards the center of the Earth.   
      
   Doesn't this mean that in the free-falling elevator the force of=20   
   gravity has not disappeared at all but is well active?
