Halliday, Resnick & Walker β Equilibrium and Elasticity: Problem Problem_62
A mine elevator is supported by a single steel cable 2.5 cm in diameter. The total mass of the elevator cage and occupants is 670 kg. By how much does the cable stretch when the elevator hangs by (a) 12 m of cable and (b) 362 m of cable? (Neglect the mass of the cable.)
π Solution Approach
Given: 2.5 cm, 670 kg, 12 m, 362 m
Find: (a) 12 m of cable and; (b) 362 m of cable?
