Physics Question on laws of motion

The mass of a lift is 2000kg.2000\, kg. When the tension in the supporting cable is 28000N,28000\, N, then its acceleration is

A

4ms24\, ms^{-2} upwards

B

4ms24\, ms^{-2} downwards

C

14ms214\, ms^{-2} upwards

D

30ms230\, ms^{-2} downwards

Answer

4ms24\, ms^{-2} upwards

Explanation

Solution

ΣF=ma\Sigma F = ma
Tmg=ma\Rightarrow T - mg = ma
a=Tmgm=4m/s2a =\frac{ T - mg }{ m }=4\, m / s ^{2}
