Answer:
Distance, d = 150 m
Explanation:
It is given that,
Work done by the elevator, W = 150000 J
Force exerted to take people to the top of the building is, F = 1000 N
Work done is defined as the product of force acting on an object and the distance travelled by it. Mathematically, it can be written as :
W = F × d
where
d is the distance travelled by the elevator.
[tex]d=\dfrac{W}{F}[/tex]
[tex]d=\dfrac{150000\ J}{1000\ N}[/tex]
d = 150 m
Hence, the distance traveled by the elevator is 150 m.
