A 1260kg freight elevator is supported by a steel cable of diameter 34.9mm. It is loaded with a crowd of people collectively having a mass of 2850kg and it is descending.
What is the strain in the cable when it is brought to a stop in 0.600s?
I'm not really sure how to figure in the fact that the elevator is slowing in this equation? a little push in the right direction would be GREATLY GREATLY appreciated. thanks!
