You are designing a high-speed elevator for a new skyscraper. The elevator will have a mass limit of 2400 kg (including passengers). For passenger comfort, you choose the maximum ascent speed to be 18.0 m/s, the maximum descent speed to be 10.0 m/s, and the maximum acceleration magnitude to be 5.00 m/s2. Ignore friction. a.)What is the maximum value of a 60.0-kg passenger’s apparent weight during the ascent b.)What is the minimum time it will take the elevator to descend to the lobby from the observation deck, a vertical displacement of 640 m?

The vertical component of the acceleration of a sailplane is zero when the air pushes up against its wings with a lift force of 4.00 kN. a. Assume that the only forces on the sailplane are that due to gravity and that due to the air pushing up against its wings. What will be the gravitational force on Earth due to the sailplane? If the force acting is in upward direction, enter a positive value and if the force acting is in downward direction, enter a negative value. (answer in kN) b. If the wing stalls and the upward force decreases to 1.71 kN, what is the acceleration of the sailplane? If the acceleration is upward, enter a positive value and if the acceleration is downward, enter a negative value answer in m/s^2
Dave with a mass of 60 kg goes tubing down a 20 m long hill that has an angle off the horizon of 25º. (Gravity applies) a. He gets a push from the bottom of the hill, so his initial velocity is 2 m/s. How far up the hill will he go before stopping? (there’s no friction) b. He goes back down the hill and then his friend Jill tries to pull him on the tube across a small patch of grass (μk=0.30). If she is pulling parallel to the ground at constant 5 m/s for 5 sec how much power does she expend? c. After climbing back uphill, Dave decided to roll down the hill instead. If he were to be a long cylinder with a radius of 0.1 m, what is his moment of inertia? d. After rolling without slipping down the hill, what is Dave’s final velocity at the bottom of the hill?
