This is a tricky one but on my part I'd have to say depending on the contract A,B,C.
Answer:
5.791244495 KNm
Explanation:
The height h is given by, 
Potential energy, PE is given by
PE=mgh where m is mass of the woman, g is acceleration due to gravity whose value is taken as 
and h is already given hence substituting 77 Kg for m we obtain
PE=21.6567095 KNm
We also know that Kinetic energy is given by
where v is the velocity and substituting v for 20.3 we obtain
KE=15.865465 KNm
Friction work is the difference between PE and KE hence
Friction work=21.6567095 KNm-15865.465 Nm=5.791244495 KNm
Answer:
4 m/s²
Explanation:
When the elevator is 1 m below point of contact , compression will be 1 m.
Restoring force in the spring will be 10600 N. Friction force of 17000N will also act in upward direction . The weight of 2000 x 9.8 N will act downwards
Force in down ward direction = 2000 x 9.8
= 19600 N
Force in upward direction
= 10600 + 17000
= 27600 N
Net force in upward direction
= 27600 - 19600
= 8000 N
Acceleration in upward direction
= 8000 / 2000
= 4 m/s²
