The apparent weight of the child is 437.5 N.

Calculation:

The weight of a person/object moving up with an acceleration "a" is given by

W = m (g + a)

where,

W = apparent weight

m = mass of the person/object

g = acceleration due to gravity = 10 m/s²

a = acceleration of the object/person

Given,

m = 35 kg

a = 2.5 m/s²

To find,

W =?

Put the value sin the formula,

W = m (g + a)

W = 35 (10 + 2.5)

   = 35 (12.5)

   = 437.5 N

Therefore, the apparent weight of the child is 437.5 N.
