An elevator in a building can carry a maximum of 10 persons, with the average mass of each
person being 68 kg, The mass of the elevator itself is 920 kg and it moves with a constant speed
of 3 m/s. The frictional force opposing the motion is 6000 N. If the elevator is moving up with its
full capacity, the power delivered by the motor to the elevator (g = 10 m/s2) must be at least :
