Gravity pulls objects down to the earth
Pretty sure it’s Force*Distance*Cos(theta)
The work done to stretch the spring will be 112 J.
<h3>What is spring force?</h3>
The force required to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance is known as the spring force. Its formula is
F = kx
The given data in the problem is;
F is the spring force =?
K is the spring constant= 8.5 N/m
x is the length by which spring got stretched = 1.2m
The work is done to stretch the spring is;

Answer:
a) F = 2250 Ib
b) F = 550 Ib
c) new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
Explanation:
A) The force the wall of the elevator shaft exert on the motor if the elevator starts from rest and goes up
max capacity of elevator = 24000 Ibs
counterweight = 1000 Ibs
To calculate the force (F) :
we first calculate the Tension using this relationship
Counterweight (1000) - T = ( 1000 / g ) ( g/4 )
Hence T = 750 Ib
next determine F
750 + F - 2400 = 2400 / 4
hence F = 2250 Ib
B ) calculate Tension first
T - 1000 = ( 1000/g ) ( g/4)
T = 1250 Ib
F = 2400 -1250 - 2400/ 4
F = 550 Ib
C ) determine design limit
Max = 2400 * 1.2 = 2880 Ib
750 + new force - 2880 = 2880 / 4
new max force ( F newmax ) = 2850 Ib
