Let the initial velocity be u m/s. angle of projection = 0 initial component of velocity in vertical direction = 0 horizontal displacement from initial position at t= 0sec, = x = u t vertical displacement from initial position at t = 0 0sec, = y = -1/2 g t² so t = x/u Hence ...

An elevator weighs 3000kg. What is its acceleration when the in the tension supporting cable is 33000N. Given that g = 9.8m/s2.
M = 3000 kg g = 9.8 m/s² T = 33000 a = ? Ma = Mg - T 3000 * a = 3000 * 9.8 - 33000 3000a = 29400 - 33000 3000a = - 3600 a = - 1.2 m/s².
