An elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration and moves 1 m in the first 1.7 s. A passenger in the elevator is holding a 5.1 kg bundle at the end of a vertical cord. What is the tension in the cord as the elevator accelerates

Tension = 53.6N

Explanation:

Given that

Height h = 1 m

Time t = 1.7 s.

Mass m = 5.1 kg 

From the equation of the motion we can get the acceleration of the elevator:

h = X0+ V0t + at2/2;

Th elevator starts from rest with a constant upward acceleration. Initial velocity Vo = 0, also Xo = 0; thus

a = 2h/t2 = 2 × 1/1.7^2

a = 0.69 m/s2.

Then we can find the tension in the cord by using the formula

T = mg + ma

= 5.1 (9.8 + 0.69)

= 5.1 × 10.5

= 53.6N

speed

ratio of distance traveled to time interval

net force

vector sum of forces on object

object

source of diverging light rays either luminous or illuminated

don't remove my answer im trying my best to answer them

explanation:

double the distance = divide strength by 4
