If the thief has a free fall then the weight of the box as experienced by the thief during jump is zero as we know during free fall m(g-g) which is equal to zero, where m is mass and g is gravity.

Answer:
The weight of the box experienced by the thief during jump is 0.
Explanation:
When any object falls from the height, it is said to have free flow due to gravitational force of earth. So when a thief jumps from the roof of a house with a box, then free flow is applied to both of them and they both fall at the same acceleration towards earth. Because of which thief and box both don’t feel any force and they become weightless. So weight experienced by the thief during jump, W = 0.
