An electric elevator with a motor at the top has a multistrand cable weighing 8.4 lb/ft. When the car is on the first floor 270 feet of cable are paid out, and effectively 0 feet when the car is on the top floor. How much work does the motor do to lift an 1800 lb car and cable from the first floor to the top? Provide a picture model, give the approximate equation, then solve.
