Two blocks, each of mass m = 2.85 kg are hung from the ceiling of an elevator as in the figure below. (a) If the elevator moves with an upward acceleration a→ of magnitude 1.1 m/s2, find the tensions T1 and T2 in the upper and lower strings. T1 = N T2 = N (b) If the strings can withstand a maximum tension of 69.4 N, what maximum acceleration can the elevator have before a string breaks? m/s2

Two blocks, each of mass

m = 2.85 k g

are hung from the ceiling of an elevator as in the figure below. (a) If the elevator moves with an upward acceleration

\vec{a}

of magnitude

1.1 m / s^{2}

, find the tensions

T_{1}

and

T_{2}

in the upper and lower strings.

\begin{array}{l} T_{1} = ◻ N \\ T_{2} = ◻ N \end{array}

(b) If the strings can withstand a maximum tension of 69.4 N , what maximum acceleration can the elevator have before a string breaks?

◻

m / s^{2}
