A uniform 40.0−kg scaffold of length 6.0 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below. An 80.0-kg painter stands 1.0 m from the left end of the scaffold, and his painting equipment is 1.5 m from the right end. If the tension in the left cable is twice that in the right cable, find the tensions in the cables and the mass of the equipment. Right cable 444.3N, left cable 888.5N, mass of equipment 16.0 kg Right cable 222.3N, left cable 333.5N, mass of equipment 8.0 kg Right cable 666.3N, left cable 333.5N, mass of equipment 32.0 kg Right cable 333.3N, left cable 222.5N, mass of equipment 10.0 kg

A uniform 50−kg scaffold of length 7.0 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below. A 62−kg painter stands 1.0 m from the left end of the scaffold, and his paint bucket is 1.5 m from the right end. If the tension in the left cable is twice that in the right cable, find the tensions in the cables and the mass of the bucket. As a hint, you have three unknowns, T1 (left cable), T2 (right cable), and the bucket's mass/weight. One way to do this is to set the axis at the bucket, so that the weight of the bucket is not part of the net torque equation (because the lever arm, the distance from the axis, is zero). Then use the fact that the net torque needs to be equal to zero for everything to be balanced. You should be able to solve for T1 and T2. Then, do a new problem where you sum all of the "y" forces, and equate them all to zero (that should allow you to calculate the mass or weight of the bucket). mbucket = kg Tleft = N Tright = N

In the figure, a horizontal scaffold, of length 2.86 m and uniform mass 52.6 kg, is suspended from a building by two cables. The scaffold has dozens of paint cans stacked on it at various points. The total mass of the paint cans in 74.8 kg. The tension in the cable at the right is 798 N. How far horizontally from that cable is the center of mass of the system of paint cans?
