How to calculate the acceleration of an elevator?

The elevator will only accelerate when it starts moving. They are designed to move at a particular speed so there will be no acceleration when it reaches this speed. What you have to do is find the stationary weight and the minimum weight when the elevator starts. Your next calculation is how long it takes to go from one weight to the other. This will give you the parameters to calculate the acceleration.
