A 50-kg student gets in a 1000-kg elevator at rest. As the elevator begins to move, she has an apparent weight of 600 N for the first 3 s. How far has the elevator moved, and in which direction, at the end of 3 s?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The elevator has moved 54 meters upwards.

Explanation:

m= 50kg

F= 600 N

t= 3 sec

a= [F-(m*g)]/m

a= (600N-490N)/50kg

a= 2.2 m/s²

h= (a*t²)/2

h= (2.2m/s²*(3 sec)²)/2

h= 9.9 m
