Question
A tower crane has a hoist motor rated at 155 hp. If the crane is limited to using 67.0% of its maximum hoisting power for safety reasons, what is the shortest time in which the crane can lift a 5.50×103 kg load over a distance of 77.0 m?Assume the load is lifted at a constant velocity.

- An elevator has mass 600 kg, not including passengers. The elevator is designed to ascend, at constant speed, a vertical distance of 20.0 m (five floors) in 16.0 s, and it is driven by a motor that can provide up to 40 hp to the elevator. What is the maximum number of passengers that can ride in the elevator? Assume that an average passenger has mass 65.0 kg. Please note that 11, 17, and 27 are not correct according to my teacher.arrow_forwardA 35.0 kg crate sits on a conveyor belt with s = 0.870.

Each worker is able to deliver 141 W of power, and the pulley system is 75.0% efficient (so that 25.0% of the mechanical energy is lost due to friction in the pulley). Neglecting the mass of the pulley, find the time required to lift the piano from the street to the apartment. minarrow_forward
