The lever AB is attached to the horizontal shaft BC that passes through a bearing and is welded to a fixed support at C . The torsional spring constant of the shaft BC is k ; that is, a couple of magnitude K is required to rotate end B through 1 rad. Knowing that the shaft is untwisted when AB is horizontal, determine the value of 0 corresponding to the position of equilibrium when P = 100 N, I= 250 mm, and K = 12.5 N.m/rad.
