The cable lifting an elevator is wrapped around a 1.1m diameter cylinder that is turned by the elevator's motor. The elevator is moving upward at a speed of 2.6 ms. It then slows to a stop, while the cylinder turns one complete revolution. How long does it take for the elevator to stop? Express your answer to two significant figures and include the appropriate units.

t = 2.7 s

Explanation:

This is a kinematics problem.

How the elevator reduces its speed to zero by a distance equal to the length of the cylinder

        y = 2π r = 2 π d / 2

        y = π d

        y = π 1.1

        y = 3,456 m

now we can look for the acceleration of the system

        v² = v₀² - 2 a y

        0 = v₀² - 2 a y

        a = v₀² / 2y

        a = 2.6² / 2 3.456

        a = 0.978 m / s²

now let's calculate the time

        v = v₀ - a t

        0 = v₀ - at

         t = v₀ / a

         t = 2.6 /0.978

         t = 2.658 s

ask for the result with two significant figures

         t = 2.7 s

concave lenses are used here. they spread the light out before it reaches the convex lens in the eye, therefore letting the image focus directly on the retina. hyperopia is known to you probably as farsightedness.

i think the answer is a, hope this : )
