A uniform 50-kg scaffold of length 7.0 m is supported by two light cables, as shown below. A 58-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. Express all answers rounded to one decimal place.
1. 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 right end of the scaffold, and his 2.5 kg painting equipment is 1.5 m from the left end. a) Draw an FBD of the scaffold and clearly label all the forces acting on the scaffold b) Summing the torques acting on the scaffold, find the tension in the right-hand cable. Summing the forces acting...

A 397-N, uniform, 1.32-m bar is suspended horizontally by two vertical cables at each end. Cable A can support a maximum tension of 510.0 N without breaking, and cable B can support up to 413.0 N . You want to place a small weight on this bar. Part APart complete What is the heaviest weight you can put on without breaking either cable? Part B Where should you put this weight, what is d?
A 338- N , uniform, 1.41- m bar is suspended horizontally by two vertical cables at each end. Cable A can support a maximum tension of 509.0 N without breaking, and cable B can support up to 445.0 N . You want to place a small weight on this bar. A-What is the heaviest weight you can put on without breaking either cable? B-Where should you put this weight?
A uniform board of length 2.40 m and mass 4.00 kg is pivoted at
one end and has a rope attached at the other end, as shown in the
figure below. A bucket of mass 2.00 kg is suspended 40.0 cm from
the rope. Find: (a) the tension in the rope; (b) the horizontal and
vertical forces exerted by the pivot.
27.2 kg mass is suspended by the cable assembly as shown in the figure below. The cables have no mass of their own. The cable to the left (cable 1) of the mass makes an angle, theta θ1 = 0.00° with the horizontal, and the cable to the right (cable 2) makes an angle, theta θ2 = 38.5°. If the mass is at rest what is the tension in each of the cables, T1 and T2? The acceleration due to...
