Answer:
The value is [tex]\alpha = 24.5 \ rad/s^2[/tex]
Explanation:
From the question we are told that
The weight of the elevator is [tex]W = 7300 \ N[/tex]
The acceleration it is to be given is [tex]a = 0.150 \ g = 0.150 * 9.8 = 1.47 \ m/s^2[/tex]
The diameter of the shaft is [tex]d = 12.0 \ cm = 0.12 \ m[/tex]
Generally the radius is mathematically represented as
[tex]r = \frac{d}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = \frac{0.12}{2}[/tex]
=> [tex]r = 0.06 \ m[/tex]
Generally the minimum angular acceleration is mathematically represented as
[tex]\alpha = \frac{a}{r}[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = \frac{1.47}{0.06}[/tex]
=> [tex]\alpha = 24.5 \ rad/s^2[/tex]
