Answer:
a) m =589.734kg
b) n = 8 people (rounded down)
Step-by-step explanation:
The first step is to calculate the maximum load after safety considerations (
Since we know that the maximum tension the cables can withstand is 19500N (or 19.5kN). To calculate (
we multiply this value by
(as per the given safety consideration.
Hence

a) Now to find the maximum load in kgs, we use the following formula

Where
= mass of elevator
= maximum load
= acceleration due to gravity
= maximum acceleration of elevator
Inputting the values and solving

Hence the maximum load is m =589.734kg
b) To find the number of people (n) we divide the value of m by 70kg
n = 589.734 / 70
n = 8.42 or 8 people
Answer:
10 pounds for $4.99
Step-by-step explanation:
If you multiply the 5 pounds for 2.69 by 2, you would get 10 pounds of hamburger for 5.38 which is more than 4.99
This is how I would do it;
Convert to minutes 3/5 *60 = 36
Convert this to decimal 2/5 = 0.4
Then;
if it takes 36 mnts to paint 0.4yd^
in 60 mnts x yd^
___________________
60 x 0.4 / 36 = 0.66666667
convert back to fraction = 2/3 yd^ in 1hr
