An elevator is being lifted up an elevator shaft at a constant speed by a steel...
An elevator is pulled upward so it moves with increasing upward
speed?the force exerted by the cable on the elevator is constant
and greater than the downward gravitational force exerted by Earth.
When the elevator is moving up medium-fast, the force exerted by
the cable on the elevator changes abruptly to just balance the
downward gravitational force of Earth?the sum of the forces that
the cable and Earth exert on the elevator is now zero.
please explain, thanks
An elevator is being lifted at a constant Motor speed by a steel cable attached to an electric motor. Which statement is correct? Cable A. The cable does positive work on the elevator, and the elevator does positive Elevator work on the cable. B. The cable does positive work on the elevator, and the elevator does negative work on the cable. C. The cable does negative work on the elevator, and the elevator does positive work on...
(a) An elevator of mass m moving upward has two forces acting on it: the upward force of tension in the cable and the downward force due to gravity. When the elevator is accelerating upward, which is greater, T or w? Tw Both forces are equal. (b) When the elevator is moving at a constant velocity upward, which is greater, T or w? Tw Both forces are equal. (c) When the elevator is moving upward, but the acceleration is downward, which is...
You are conducting an experiment inside an elevator that can move in a vertical shaft. A load is hung vertically from the ceiling on a string. The tension in the string is measured to be exactly equal to the force due to gravity on the load. No other forces are acting on the load. Which of the following statements about the elevator are correct? Check all that apply. The elevator is an inertial frame of reference. The elevator is not...

Suppose a 1350-kg elevator car is lifted a distance 41 m by its cable at a constant speed, assuming the frictional force on the elevator has a constant value of 1575 N. Calculate the work done on the elevator by its cable, in joules. Calculate the work done by the gravitational force on the elevator, in joules, during this process. Calculate the total work done on the elevator, in joules.
You are standing in an elevator with a 20.0 kg child on your shoulders. The elevator is traveling upward at a velocity of 2.00 m/s and an acceleration of -1.00 m/s2 . Your mass is 60.0 kg; the elevator mass is 1200.0 kg. 1) What is the tension in the cable that supports the elevator? For this question, I found that the tension was smaller than the downward force. How can this be possible with the elevator having an upward...
You are in your favorite elevator, coming to a stop as you go from the ground floor to the 4th floor. a) What forces are acting on you as you are coming to a stop in the elevator? Normal force upward and Force of gravity upward Normal force downward and Force of gravity upward Normal force downward and Force of gravity downward Normal force upward and Force of gravity downward Just the Force of gravity downward b) As you are...
(13.1) An elevator riding in a frictionless vertical shaft has total mass of 1000 kg. (a) The elevator cable exerts a force of 9000 N in the upward direction on the elevator. Determine (i) the acceleration of the elevator, and (ii) how long it takes for the elevator, starting from rest, to attain a speed of 5 m/s. (b) The cable exerts a force of 12000 N [up] on the elevator. Determine (i) the acceleration of the elevator, and (ii)...
a) A box in an upward moving elevator is being pushed across the floor with a constant force. 1) Friction is doing positive work on the box. True or False 2) The pushing force is doing negative work on the box. True or False 3) The normal force on the box is doing positive work on the box. True or False 4) If there is net positive work on the box parallel to the floor, the kinetic energy of the...
