Determine what is the tension in the cable

Reference no: EM13710567

Problem: An elevator weighing 20,000 N is supported by a steel cable.

Part A: What is the tension in the cable when the elevator is being accelerated upwards at a rate of 3.00 m/s²?

I want help to find the tension in the cable when the elevator is being accelerated upwards.
