Suppose a 1300-kg elevator car is lifted a distance 39 m by its cable at a constant speed, assuming the frictional force on the elevator has a constant value of 95 N.

Part (a). Calculate the work done on the elevator by its cable, in joules.

Part (b). Calculate the work done by the gravitational force on the elevator, in joules, during this process.

Part (c). Calculate the total work done on the elevator, in joules.

An elevator car including the passengers has a mass of 1100 kg and travels downwards at constant speed of 4.000 m/s for 32.00 m. The force of friction averaging 80.00 N acts on the elevator. The work done by the force of gravity; the work done by the force of friction; and the work done by the cable supporting the elevator during the 32.00 m excursion were (in that order, in kJ): Answer: 345.0; -2.560; -342.4

The 2040 kg cable car shown in the figure descends a 200-m-high hill. In addition to its brakes, the cable car controls its speed by pulling an 1860 kg counterweight up the other side of the hill. The rolling friction of both the cable car and the counterweight are negligible. Part A: How much braking force does the cable car need to descend at constant speed? Part B: One day the brakes fail just as the cable car leaves the...

An elevator car has a mass of 1500 kg carry 3 passengers with a total mass of 330 kg. The lift operates with a constant frictional force of 2 700 N working against the motion of the elevator. How much power must the motor deliver to the elevator cart to keep it moving at a constant speed of 2.4 ms-1 ? How much power would need to be supplied by the motor if it was 70% efficient?
