Answer:
The answer is B.
Explanation:
Given that the <em>current </em>(Ampere) in a series circuit is same so we can ignore it. We can assume that the total voltage is 60V and all the 3 resistance are different, 20Ω, 40Ω and 60Ω. So first, we have to find the total resistance by adding :
Total resistance = 20Ω + 40Ω + 60Ω
= 120Ω
Next, we have to find out that 1Ω is equal to how many voltage by dividing :
120Ω = 60V
1Ω = 60V ÷ 120
1Ω = 0.5V
Lastly, we have to calculate the voltage at R1 so we have to multiply by 20 (R1) :
1Ω = 0.5V
20Ω = 0.5V × 20
20Ω = 10V

Explanation:
The equation for this, since we are talking about weight on an elevator, is Newton's 2nd Law adjusted to fit our needs:
where the Normal Force needed to lift that elevator car is the tension. So the equation then becomes
T = ma + w where T is the tension in the cable to lift the elevator, m is the mass of the elevator (which we have to solve for), a is the acceleration of the elevator (positive since it's going up), and w is the weight of the elevator (which we have as 5500 N). Solving first for mass:
w = mg and
5500 =- m(10) so
m = 550 kg. Now we have what we need to solve for the tension:
T = 550(4.0) + 5500 and
T = 2200 + 5500 so
T = 7700 N
