Answer:

10880N

Explanation:

We are given that

Mass of elevator, m=850 kg

Acceleration, [tex]a=3m/s^2[/tex]

[tex]g=9.8m/s^2[/tex]

We have to find the tension in the cable.

We know that

When elevator is accelerating upward then tension in the cable

[tex]T=m(a+g)[/tex]

Using the formula

[tex]T=850(3+9.8)[/tex]

[tex]T=10880N[/tex]
