Question

An elevator is raised from the ground floor to the 15th floor of a tall building, through a total distance of 54.9 m, in 1.00 minute. If the tension in the cable that raises the elevator is 18000 N, what is the average power supplied by this force?

Step 1

The work done (W) is given by the formula: \[ W = F \times d \] where \( F \) is the force (tension in the cable) and \( d \) is the distance moved. Here, \( F = 18000 \, \text{N} \) and \( d = 54.9 \, \text{m} \). So, \[ W = 18000 \, \text{N} \times Show more…
