(a) An elevator of mass m moving upward has two forces acting on it: the upward force of tension in the cable and the downward force due to gravity. When the elevator is accelerating upward, which is greater, T or w?
Tw Both forces are equal.
(b) When the elevator is moving at a constant velocity upward,
which is greater, T or w?
Tw Both forces are equal.
(c) When the elevator is moving upward, but the acceleration is
downward, which is greater, T or w?
Tw Both forces are equal.
(d) Let the elevator have a mass of 1,450 kg and an upward
acceleration of 2.1 m/s2. Find T.

An elevator is pulled upward so it moves with increasing upward
speed?the force exerted by the cable on the elevator is constant
and greater than the downward gravitational force exerted by Earth.
When the elevator is moving up medium-fast, the force exerted by
the cable on the elevator changes abruptly to just balance the
downward gravitational force of Earth?the sum of the forces that
the cable and Earth exert on the elevator is now zero.
