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.

Mg - T = Ma 3000 * 9.8 - 33000 = 3000* a 29400 - 33000 = 3000 * a -3600/3000 = a a = - 1.2 m/s2

Given, Weight, M = 3000kg Tension, T = 33000N g = 9.8m/s^2 a= ? We have, Mg - T = Ma ie, (3000*9.8) - 33000 = 3000 * a a = ((3000*9.8) - 33000)/3000 = -1.2m/s^2 therefore the elevator is moving up with an acceleration of 1.2m/s^2

33000-3000*9.8=3000*a 33000-29400=3000*a 3600/3000=a

33000-g.3000 = a.3000 With usual meaning of symbols. a negative means movement is downward & vice versa.

Equate F (net) = ma Then T - mg = ma (assume all vectors in + Y direction as positive) 33000 - 3000 X 9.8 = 3000 a a = 1.2 m/s² This essentially means that the net force on the elevator is making it move up with an acceleration of 1.2 m/s² See my lecture notes for...

A lift is accelerated upward. Will the apparent weight of a person inside the lift increase, decrease or remain the same relative to its real weight? If the lift is going with uniform speed, then?
Thd apparent weight of the person will increase. When in uniform speed then acceleration is zero, so no change in weight.

Why does a swimmer push the water backwards?
According to newton's 3rd law of motion in each and every action there is an equal and opposite force. So if he push the water backwards then according to the above principle or law he will be able to move forward.
