Homework Statement
A 1.0X10^3kg elevator carries a maximum load of 800.0 kg. A constant frictional force of 4.0x10^3N retards the elevator's motion upward. What minimum power in kilowatts must the motor deliver to lift the fully loaded elevator at a constant speed of 3.00m/s?
Homework Equations
This is part of my problem that I don't understand.
The Attempt at a Solution
I haven't made an attempt because I do not know the equation. I'm studying for my college finals and this is a question that my friend made for a review. Unfortunately, he is visiting a family member who is expecting to pass soon. Any advice would be great!
