Question

Q.1       An elevator stars from restwith a constant upward acceleration and moves 1m in the first 2s. Apassenger in the elevator is holding a 8.9 kg bundle at the end ofa vertical cord. The acceleration of gravity is9.8m/s2.    What is the tension in the cord as the elevatoraccelerates? Q.1       An elevator stars from restwith a constant upward acceleration and moves 1m in the first 2s. Apassenger in the elevator is holding a 8.9 kg bundle at the end ofa vertical cord. The acceleration of gravity is9.8m/s2.    What is the tension in the cord as the elevatoraccelerates?

Explanation / Answer

v=1/2=0.5m/s

The acceleration produced is

v2-u2=2as
