To solve this problem we will apply the concepts of equilibrium and Newton's second law.
According to the description given, it is under constant ascending acceleration, and the balance of the forces corresponding to the tension of the rope and the weight of the elevator must be equal to said acceleration. So
Here,
T = Tension
m = Mass
g = Gravitational Acceleration
a = Acceleration (upward)
Rearranging to find T,
Therefore the tension force in the cable is 10290.15N
The electric field at one corner of a square is 1614217 N/C.
Explanation:
The distance between x and y direction diagonals.
As per the given details the distance between diagonals is calculated as
0.5² + 0.5² = c² => c = 0.707 m
Charge to the right: In x direction
In order to find the electric charge towards x direction
we use e = kq/r² formula
As 'k' is coulomb's constant it's value is 9 x N m²/C²
e = (9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²
e = 9 x N/C
Charge diagonal:
e = kq/r²
e = [(9 x )(250 x
) / (0.707)²] cos 45
e = 225000√2 N/C
X direction sum = 1218198 N/C.
Similarly as shown in x direction the charge is same for y direction also
Charge below: For y direction
e = kq/r²
e = (9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²
e = 9 x N/C
Charge diagonal:
e = kq/r²
e = [(9 x )(250 x
) / (0.5)²] sin 45
e = 159099 N/C
Y direction sum = 1059099 N/C
Resultant electric field strength:
1218198 ² + 1059099² = e²
e = 1614217 N/C [45 degrees below the horizontal]
