Pulley A is suspended from a rope E, with one end of therope attached to the ceiling and the othewr end threaded over pulley B. Pulley B is suspended from the ceiling witha a rope G. From pulley A a 60 kg mass is suspended witha arope F. At the end of the rope E threaded over pulley B is a mass m which keeps the system in balance. Draw a free body diagram for each mass and for each pulley and calculate the value of mass m.

Hey to clarify, yea I was confused about that too but the problem says specifically that G is a different rope attached to the cieling.

I can't show you my sketch, but I get m=30kg.

*this is not an answer*
some clarification, are you sure rope E and rope G aren't the same rope that just happens to be both threaded though&over both pulleys?
