Question

A uniform 37.0 kg scaffold of length 6.2 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below. An 82.0 kg painter stands 1.0 m from the left end of the scaffold, and his painting equipment is 1.6 mfrom the right end. If the tension in the left cable is twice that in the right cable, find the tensions in the cables (in N) and the mass of the equipment (in kg). (Due to the nature of this problem, do not use rounded intermediate values in your calculations).

The image depicts a person standing on a platform. Toward the right side of the platform, there is a bucket. The platform is enclosed by two vertical posts with horizontal beams at the top, possibly representing a setup for a physical demonstration or experiment. The scene appears simple and might be used to explain concepts in physics, such as balance, forces, or motion. The person is dressed in white with a cap, and the setting looks like an indoor or controlled environment.
