The device shown in the figure consists of a prismatic rigid pointer ABC supported by a uniform translational spring of stiffness k = 950 N/m. The spring is positioned a distance P = 165 nun from the pinned end A of the pointer. The device is adjusted so that, when there is no load P, the pointer reads zero on the angular scale.
