प्रश्न
Why is electrical power required at all when the elevator is descending? Why should there be a limit on the number of passengers in this case?
उत्तर
When the elevator is descending, then electric power is required to prevent it from falling freely under gravity.
Also, as the weight inside the elevator increases. its speed of descending increases. therefore, there should be a limit on the number of passengers in the elevator to prevent the elevator from descending with large velocity.

A block of mass m is attached to two unstretched springs of spring constants k1 and k2 as shown in the following figure. The block is displaced towards the right through a distance x and is released. Find the speed of the block as it passes through the mean position shown.
In the following figure shows two blocks A and B, each of mass of 320 g connected by a light string passing over a smooth light pulley. The horizontal surface on which the block Acan slide is smooth. Block A is attached to a spring of spring constant 40 N/m whose other end is fixed to a support 40 cm above the horizontal surface. Initially, the spring is vertical and unstretched when the system is released to move. Find the velocity of the block A at the instant it breaks off the surface below it. Take g = 10 m/s2.
