Consider a person standing on a scale in an elevator. If the elevator accelerates upwards with an acceleration of 1.27 m/s2 and the person has a mass of 79.2 kg, what would the scale read? HINT: you need to take into account the acceleration due to gravity, as well as that of the elevator.
A man stands on a scale in an elevator that is accelerating upward. The scale reads 973.8 N. When he holds a 44.0 kg box, the scale reads 1449.8 N. What is the man's mass? and What is the magnitude of the acceleration of the elevator?
Sphere A is attached to the ceiling of an elevator by a string. A second sphere is attached to the first one by a second string. Both strings are of negligible mass. Here m₁ = m₂ = m = 3.67 kg. = = T₁ m₁ (a) The elevator starts from rest and accelerates downward with a = 1.35 m/s². What are the tensions in the two strings in newtons? T₁ N N T2 = T₂ m₂ (b) If the elevator moves upward instead with the same acceleration what will be the tension in the two strings in newtons? Т1 T2 N N (c) The maximum tension the two strings can withstand is 89.8 N. What maximum upward acceleration (in m/s2) can the elevator have without having one of the strings break? m/s²
