A ski lift elevates a skier of total mass 70 kg a vertical displacement of 300 m.on ski slope.
What work is done to elevate the skier ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

work done =mgh =`(70kgxx10`ms^(-2)xx300m)`
=210000J
=`2.1xx10^5J`

Workers are loading equipment into a freight elevator at the top floor of a building. However, they overload the elevator and the worn cable snaps. The mass of the loaded elevator at the time of the accident is 1600 kg. As the elevator falls, the guide rails exert a constant retarding force of 3700 N on the elevator. At what speed does the elevator hit the bottom of the shaft 72 m below?

A boy in the elevator shoots a bullet in a vertical upward direction from a height of 1.5 m above the floor of the elevator. There is no roof in the elevator. The floor of the elevator is at 50 m from ground at the instant when velocity of the elevator is 10 m/s in upward direction. The bullet strikes the floor of the elevator in 2 seconds. The initial speed of the bullet is 15 m/s relative to the elevator. Q. Find the displacement of the bullet relative to ground during its flight:

A 120 HP electric motor lifts an elevator having a maximum total load capacity of 3000 kg. If the frictional force on the elevator is 6000N, the speed of the elevator at full load is close to : (1 HP = 746 W, g = 10 ms^(-2) ).

A 60 HP electric motor lifts an elevator having a maximum total load capacity of 2000 kg. if the frictional force on the elevator is 4000 N, the speed of the elevator at full load is close to : ( 1 HP = 746 W, g = 10 ms ^( - 2 ) )
