Find the cord tension when the elevator ascends

Reference no: EM13664752

A lamp hangs vertically from a cord in a descending elevator that decelerates at 3.2 m/s2.

(a) If the tension in the cord is 84 Newton, determine what is the lamp mass?

(b) Find the cord tension when the elevator ascends with an upward acceleration of 3.2m/s2?
