Solve the all parts of given problem:

Problem: A loaded elevator with very worn cables has a total mass of 2200 kg, and the cables can withstand a maximum tension of 2.70×10⁴N.

Part A: Apply Newton's second law to the elevator and find the maximum upward acceleration for the elevator if the cables are not to break?

Part B: What would be the answer to part 1 if the elevator were on the moon, where free fall acceleration is g = 1.62m/s².

Please, try to give explanation. Thanks.
