Question:

The mass of a lift is 2000 kg. When the tension in the supporting cable is 28000 N, then its acceleration is : 

Options:

4 m/s2 upwards

4 m/s2 downwards

14 m/s2 upwards

30 m/s2 downwards

Correct Answer:

4 m/s2 upwards

Explanation:

2000 a = 28000 - 20000 = 8000

a = \(\frac{8000}{2000}\)

a = 4 m/s2 upwards
