A 500 kg empty elevator moves with a downwards acceleration of 2 m/s2. What is the tension force of the cable on the elevator? 5000 N 4000 N 6000 N 1000 N

T = 4000 N

Explanation:

We have,

Mass of an elevator, m = 500 kg

It is moving downward with an acceleration of . It is required to find the  tension force of the cable on the elevator. We know that when the elevator is moving downward, the net force on it is given by :

g is acceleration due to gravity

So, the tension force of the cable on the elevator is 4000 N.

as a general rule, scissors have blades less than 6 in (15 cm) long and usually have handles with finger holes of the same size. shears have blades scissors used to cut hair or fabric must be much sharper.
