The speed
of the elevator at the beginning of the 8 m descent is nearly 4 m/s. Hence, option A is the correct answer.
We are given that-
the mass of the elevator (m) = 1000 kg ;
the distance the elevator decelerated to be y = 8m ;
the tension is T = 11000 N;
let us determine the acceleration 'a' by using Newton's second law of motion.
∑Fy = ma
W - T = ma
(1000kg x 9.8 m/s² ) - 11000N = 1000 kg x a
9800 - 11000 = 1000
a = - 1.2 m/s²
Using the equation of kinematics to determine the initial velocity.
² =
² + 2ay
= √ ( 2 x 1.2m/s² x 8 m )
= √19.2 m²/s²
= 4.38 m/s ≈ 4 m/s
Hence, the initial velocity of the elevator is 4m/s.

Answer:
Yes
Explanation:
Kinetic energy is K.E1/2mv2 so that means it is directly proportional to mass and velocity.
<u>Answer:</u>
a) Height of cliff = 44.145 meter
b) 7.5 meter far from its base the diver hit the water.
<u>Explanation:</u>
We have equation of motion ,
, s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, a is the acceleration and t is the time.
Diver's vertical motion:
Initial velocity = 0 m/s, acceleration = 9.8
, we need to calculate displacement when time is 3 seconds.

So height of cliff = 44.145 meter.
b) Diver's horizontal motion:
Initial velocity = 2.5 m/s, acceleration = 0
, we need to calculate displacement when time is 3 seconds.

So 7.5 meter far from its base the diver hit the water.
I believe the answer is A Voltage available to each light remains constant regardless of the number of lights that are on.
