Question
An elevator and its load have a total mass of 800 kg. If the elevator, originally moving downward at 10 m/s, is brought to rest with constant decleration in a distance of 25 m the tension in the supporting cable will be
(g = 10m/s2) :-
(g = 10m/s2) :-
Options
A.8000 N
B.6500 N
C.11200 N
D.9600 N
Solution
by v2 = u2 - 2as
0 = 102 - 2a × 25
a = 2 m/s2 (Retardation)
For ↓ retardation :
T = m(g + a) = 800(10 + 2) = 9600 N
0 = 102 - 2a × 25
a = 2 m/s2 (Retardation)
For ↓ retardation :
T = m(g + a) = 800(10 + 2) = 9600 N
