Question
A uniform 37.0 kg scaffold of length 6.4 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 1.3 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 (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-including answers submitted in WebAssign.)
