A motor is used to operate a lift. There is a man in the lift. The input power of the motor is 6200 watts. The lift and the man

have a total mass of 580 kg. The lift moves up a distance of 12 m in 15 s. Calculate the tension in the cable when the lift is moving at constant speed.

Answer: 8500 N

Explanation:

You are given that the input power of the motor is 6200 watts

Since the man is in the lift, and the lift and the man have a total mass of 580 kg. The power 6200 watt is responsible to move up the lift and the man. Where power is the rate at which work is done. That is

Power = workdone/ time

But workdone = force × distance

Substitute that in power formula

Power = force × distance/time

But distance/time = velocity

Therefore, power is the product of force and velocity. That is,

P = FV

If the lift moves up a distance of 12 m in 15 s, then,

Velocity V = 12/15 = 0.8 m/s

Substitutes V and P into the power formula

6200 = F × 0.8

F = 6200/0.8

F = 8500 N

The calculated force is equal to the tension in the cable when the lift is moving at a constant speed.

Therefore, the tension in the cable is equal to 8500 N

How many possible outcomes are there in rolling a spinner 1 to 8?; What is the probability of spin an even number on a 1 to 8 sp
UkoKoshka [18]

The probability of getting a prime number ( 2, 3, 5, 7) between 1 to 8 is 1/2. The total outcomes possible for spinning the spinner and tossing the coin is 16.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

Branch of mathematics concerning numerical descriptions of how likely an event is to occur is called probability.

Total number of outcomes = 8.

Let, the probability of getting a prime number ( 2, 3, 5, 7) between 1 to 8

P(E) = (no. of outcomes) /( total no. of outcomes)

=4/8

=1/2

When a coin is tossed,  there are two possible outcomes that are H(head), and T(tail).

If you spin the spinner , there are 8 possibilities.

Total outcomes = 8 * 2

=16

There are 16 outcomes, when spinning a spinner numbered from 1 to 8 and tossing a coin.
