Answer:
10.23m/s^2
Explanation:
GIven data
mass of elevator = 2125 kg
Force= 21,750 N
Required
The maximum acceleration upward
F= ma
a= F/m
a=21,750/2125
a= 10.23m/s^2
Hence the acceleration is 10.23m/s^2

Explanation:
Average speed = distance / time
|v| = (7 km + 2 km) / (2 hr + 1 hr)
|v| = 3 km/hr
Average velocity = displacement / time
v = (7 km east + 2 km east) / (2 hr + 1 hr)
v = 3 km/hr east
An object that has kinetic energy must be <em>moving</em>.
The formula for an object's kinetic energy is
KE = (1/2) · (the object's mass) · <u><em>(the object's speed)²</em></u>
As you can see from the formula, if the object has no speed, then its kinetic energy is zero. That's why kinetic energy is usually called the "energy of motion", and if an object HAS kinetic energy, then that tells you right away that it must be moving.
