Required information You are designing a high-speed elevator for a new skyscraper. The elevator will have a mass limit of 2400 kg (including
passengers). For passenger comfort, you choose the maximum ascent speed to be 18.0 m/s, the maximum descent speed
to be 10.0 m/s, and the maximum acceleration magnitude to be 1.80 m/s2. Ignore friction.
What is the minimum upward force that the supporting cables exert on the elevator car?
KN

19,224 N

Explanation:

The given parameters are;

The mass limit of the elevator = 2,400 kg

The maximum ascent speed = 18.0 m/s

The maximum descent speed = 10.0 m/s

The maximum acceleration = 1.80 m/s²

Given that the acceleration due to gravity, g ≈ 9.81 m/s²

The minimum upward force that the elevator cable exert on the elevator car, , is given in the downward motion as follows;

= m·g - m·a

∴ = 2,400 kg × 9.81 m/s² - 2,400 kg × 1.80 m/s² = 19,224 N

The minimum upward force that the elevator cable exert on the elevator car, = 19,224 N

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
