Question
In the situation described below , compare the magnitudes ofthe two forces. explain your answer for thiss case. a.An elevator is hanging from a strong cable.The elevator isat rest. Compare the force exerted by the cable on the elevator tothat exerted by the elevator on the cable. b. In (a) compare the tension in the cable to the weight ofthe elevator. c. The elevator in (a) begins accelerating upward.Now comparethe force exerted by the cable on the elevator to that exerted bythe elevator on the cable. d. In (c) compare the tension in the cable to the weightof the elevator. e. the elevator in ( a) is moving upward at a constantvelocity. Now compare the force exerted by the cable on theelevator to that exerted by the elevator on the cable. f. In (e) compare the tension in the cable to the weight ofthe elevator.

. a.An elevator is hanging from a strong cable.The elevator isat rest. Compare the force exerted by the cable on the elevator tothat exerted by the elevator on the cable.both are equal in magnitude and opposite to thedirection.
b. In (a) compare the tension in the cable to the weight ofthe elevator.
both are equal in magnitude and opposite to thedirection.
c. The elevator in (a) begins accelerating upward.Now comparethe force exerted by the cable on the elevator to that exerted bythe elevator on the cable.
force exerted by the cable is greater than force exerted by theelevator on the cable d. In (c) compare the tension in the cable to the weightof the elevator.
tension is greater than weight of the elevator
e. the elevator in ( a) is moving upward at a constantvelocity. Now compare the force exerted by the cable on theelevator to that exerted by the elevator on the cable.
as acceleration is zero the force exerted by the cable on theelevator is equal to that exerted by the elevator on thecable. f. In (e) compare the tension in the cable to the weight ofthe elevator.
the tension in the cable is equal to the weight of theelevator.
