A window washer with a mass, M=78kg stands on a suspended
6.0-meters long platform which has a mass of 25kg. A bucket of
water with a mass, m=14kg is also on the platform. If the window
washer stands 1.7-meters from the right end of the platform, what
is the tension in the left support cable? 
Homework Answers
The torque about the right cable position is zero. We use this
to find the tension in the left cable as shown below

A window washer of mass M is sitting on a platform suspended by system of cables and pulleys as shown
A window washer of mass M is sitting on a platform suspended by system of cables and pulleys as shown(Intro1 figure). He is pulling on the cable with a force of magnitude F. The cables and pulleys are ideal (massless and frictionless), and the platform has negligible mass.Part AFind the magnitude of the minimum force F that allows the window washer to move upward. Express your answer in terms of the mass M and the magnitude of the acceleration due to gravity g.
