I Need Help With This Elevator Question!?
I am planning a building that would basically be a copy of the CN Tower in Toronto but it would be about twice the height. It would have the world’s fastest elevator, traveling at a speed of 73 feet per second or 50 mph. The elevator speed would beat today’s record of the Taipei 101′s 37.5 mph (and soon the Burj Dubai‘s 40 mph). To get to 50 mph, it would take 15 seconds-meaning that the elevator would accelerate 3.33 mph every second for 15 seconds until it reaches 50 mph. Could anyone tell me the distance it would take for the elevator to reach 50 mph if accelerating at a constant 3.33 mph every second? And also I would like to know how long it would take for the entire elevator ride to 3,000 feet-that includes the time to reach 0-50 mph, the constant speed of 50 mph, and then the decelleration time from 50 to 0 mph. I’m not talking about how long it would take if going 50 mph to reach 3,000 feet because I already know that. I am talking about how long it would take for the elevator-
continued- to reach the top involving the acceleration, constant speed, then the decelleration.

550 feet at .15g…….
56 seconds from bottom to top……..
..
*** post script there is no deceleration, it is acceleration, with a plus or minus……. Doesn’t matter if you are slowing down or speeding up..
Bastardazation of physics in language is the basis of the same to theory…

Why are Emirati people so rich….!?!?!?
I’m a Somali-American, and I’m living with my Aunt for 1 year in Dubai for school. She and her husband and kids are Somali ethnicity, but Emirati nationality and she’s so rich. They have a mansion, like a 10 minute walk from Dubai mall, or the Burj Khalifa.
They have Mercedes, land rovers, Lexus, and porsche cars. They buy a new car every year! They took me to Dubai Mall, and they literally bought me a blackberry torch, blackberry play book, and almost 2,000 dirhams worth of clothes!!
They’re buying a new house with a elevator next month! They have like 4 maids too.
They spend there money like water lol.

They have 4 maids? Do the maids have brand new land rovers? You have answered your own question. They are not all rich. They actually have huge amounts if people living on very low incomes who they exploit. They have a lot of oil rich people as they export a lot of oil at huge prices set by the cartel known as OPEC. They don’t like to know about the poor people or other nations knowing about it so they don’t put it in the holiday brochures.
Did you think the maids were all millionaires?!
