You are designing a high-speed elevator for a new skyscraper. The elevator will have a mass limit of 2400 kg (including
passengers). For passenger comfort, you choose the maximum ascent speed to be 18.0 m/s, the maximum descent speed
to be 10.0 m/s, and the maximum acceleration magnitude to be 4.40 m/s. Ignore friction.
