Hello dear,

● Answer-
W = 120 N

● Explaination-
# Given-
a = 2 m/s^2
m = 10 kg

# Solution-
When lift is ascending apparent acceleration is given by-
a' = a + g
a' = 2 + 10
a' = 12 m/s^2

Apparent weight of the mass is calculated by-
W = ma'
W = 10 × 12
W = 120 N

Therefore, the spring balance will read the weight as 120 N.

Hope it helps...
