A person of mass 60 kg is inside a lift of mass 940 kg and presses the button on control panel. The lift starts moving upwards with an acceleration `1.0 ms^(-2)`. If `g = 10 ms^(-2)`, the tension in the supporting cable is :

A

8600 N

B

9680 N

C

11000 N

D

1200 N

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`T=M(g+a)`
