A roofing shingle elevator is lifting a 25.0-kg package to the top of a building at constant speed.


A roofing shingle elevator is lifting a 25.0-kg package to the top of a building at constant speed. The angle between the elevator track and the horizontal is 75°. The power of the elevator is 900 W.


Part A 

Determine the vertical component of the speed with which the package is moving up. Assume no friction is exerted by the incline surface on the package.

An elevator system in a tall building consists of a 800-kg car and a 950-kg counterweight joined by a light cable of constant length that passes over a pulley of mass 280 kg. The pulley, called a sheave, is a solid cylinder of radius 0.700 m turning on a horizontal axle. The cable does not slip on the sheave. A number n of people, each of mass 80.0 kg, are riding in the elevator car, moving upward at 3.00 m/s...

In the worst-case scenario, you've got an elevator with a mass 2420 kg moving a speed 4.29 m/s when it reaches the bottom of the shaft. Your first idea is to put a spring, with spring constant 1.068×104 N/m, at the bottom of the shaft. a)Assuming the spring obeys Hooke's Law perfectly, how far will it compress to stop the elevator? b)When the elevator comes to a stop with the spring compressed, what is the net force on the elevator?...
