This is a multiple choice answer as classified in NCERT Exemplar
(a) As the lift when coming downward directions displacement will be negative. We have to see whether the motion is accelerating or retarding.
We know that due to downward motion displacement will be negative, when the lift reaches 4th floor is about to stop hence motion is retarding in nature.
As displacement is in negative direction . velocity will also be negative i.e v<0
