You are an engineer in charge of designing a new generation of elevators for a prospective upgrade to the empire state building. before the state legislature votes on funding for the project, they would like you to prepare a report on the benefits of upgrading the elevators. one of the numbers that they have requested is the time it will take the elevator to go from the ground floor to the 102nd floor observatory. they are unlikely to approve the project unless the new elevators make the trip much faster than the old elevators. if state law mandates that elevators cannot accelerate at greater than 5.10 m/s2 or travel faster than 16.8 m/s, what is the minimum time in which an elevator can travel the 373 m from the ground floor to the observatory floor?

hèllo, sorry i really need some more points so if you need this qustion answered than retype it

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
