A fully loaded, slow-moving freight elevator has a cab with a total mass of 1200 kg, which is required to travel upward 54 m in

3.0 min, starting and ending at rest. The elevator’s counterweight has a mass of only 950 kg, and so the elevator motor must help. What average power is required of the force the motor exerts on the cab via the cable?

Answer:

The average power is calculated as 735.0 W

Solution:

As per the question:

Total mass, M = 1200 kg

Counter mass of the elevator, m = 950

Distance traveled by the elevator, d = 54 m

Time taken, t = 3 min = 180 s

Now,

To calculate the average power:

First, we find the force needed for lifting the weight:

Force, F = (M - m)g = (1200 - 950)\times 9.8 = 2450 N

Now, the work done by this force:

W = Fd = 2450\times 54 = 132300\ J = 132.3\ kJ

Average power is given as:

P_{avg} = \frac{W}{t} = \frac{132300}{180} = 735.0\ W

Example of first, second and third law of motion.​
statuscvo [17]

Examples of Newton's three law of motion.

First law of motion: A rocket being launched up in the atmosphere.

Second law of motion:while riding a bicycle, a bicycle acts as a mass and our legs pushing on the pedals of the bicycle is the force.

Third law of motion:when we jump off from the boat,the boat moves backward.

Hope,it will helpyouu!

A container is filled to a depth of 19.0 cm with water. On top of the water floats a 31.0-cm-thick layer of oil with specific gr
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

Absolute pressure of the oil will be 102822.8 Pa  

Explanation:

We have given height h = 31 cm = 0.31 m

Acceleration due to gravity g=9.8m/sec^2

Specific gravity of oil = 0.600

So density of oil \rho =0.6\times 1000=600kg/m^3

We know that absolute pressure is given by P=P_0+\rho gh, here P_0=1.01\times 10^5Pa

So absolute pressure will be equal to P=1.01\times 10^5+600\times 9.8\times 0.31=102822.8Pa

So absolute pressure of the oil will be 102822.8 Pa
