Elevator and counterweight (Atwood’s machine). A
system of two subject over a pulley by a flexible cable, as
shown in Fig. 23a, is an elevator (mE) and its
counterweight (mC). To minimize the work done by the
motor to raise and lower the elevator safely, mE and mC
are made similar in mass. We leave the motor out o0f the
system for this calculation, and assume that the cable’s

as any friction, is small and ignorable. These assumptions
ensure that the tension FT in the cable has the same
magnitude on both sides of the pulley. Let the mass of
the counterweight be mC=1000kg. Assume the mas of
the empty elevator is 850 kg, and its mass when carrying
passengers is mE = 1150 kg. For the
