Your friend has been hired to design the interior of a special executive express elevator for a new office building. This elevator has all the latest safety features and will stop with an acceleration of g/3 in the case of an emergency. The management would like a decorative lamp hanging from the unusually high ceiling of the elevator. He designs a lamp which has three sections which hang one directly below the other. Each section is attached to the previous one by a single thin wire, which also carries the electric current. The lamp is also attached to the ceiling by a single wire. Each section of the lamp weighs 7.0 N. Because the idea is to make each section appear that it is floating on air without support, he wants to use the thinnest wire possible. Unfortunately the thinner the wire, the weaker it is. Since he knows that you have taken a course in physics, he asks you to calculate the force on each wire in case of an emergency stop. Required:
Calculate the force.
