A tension of 6000 newtons is experienced by the elevator cable of an elevator moving upward with an acceleration of 2m/s^2. what is the mass of the elevator

4 answers

Acceleration due to gravity: g=9.81 m/s^2
Upwards acceleration : a=2 m/s^2
Tension in cable T= 6000 N
Let m=mass of elevator
T=mg+ma = m(g+a)
solve for m

bore

i will need the anewer

508kg
