Elevator Kinetics

At a construction site, a worker is on a moving elevator. The tension in the cable is \(T = {{ params.tension }} \ \rm{N}\), within the first \(t = {{ params.t }} \ \rm{s}\) of movement. If the total mass of the elevator with the worker is \(m = {{ params.m2 }} \ \rm{kg}\), what is the velocity of the elevator after the \({{ params.t }} \ \rm{s}\) of start up movement?

Part 1

Answer Section

Find the acceleration for the startup movement duration of \({{ params.t }} \ \rm{s}\). Please enter in a numeric value in m/s\(^2\).

Part 2

Find the final velocity after \({{ params.t }} \ \rm{s}\).

Please enter in a numeric value in m/s.
