Chapter 10.2, Problem 10.77P
Bar ABC is attached to collars A and B that can move freely on the rods shown. The constant of the spring is k and the spring is unstretched when θ = 0. (a) Neglecting the weight of bar ABC, derive an equation in θ, m, k, and l that must be satisfied when bar ABC is in equilibrium. (b) Determine the value of θ corresponding to equilibrium when m = 5 kg, k = 800 N/m, and l = 250 mm, and check that the equilibrium is stable.

A pulley assembly is designed to measure the weight of block F using a counterweight. Springs G and H (k = 960 N/m) are compressed by 0.2 meters. Knowing that the system is in equilibrium, determine the mass of block F. Also, determine the tension carried by cable AI and the forces from bar A and bar C.
Notes!There's a single cable from point J to point B. This cable is not attached to the cable from C to F. This cable is also not attached to the horizontal bar at C. There's also a single cable running from A to block M. This cable is not attached to the horizontal bar at A. L is also a block with mass 41 kg.
A slender rod AB with a weight W is attached to two blocks A and B that can move freely in the guides shown. Knowing that the spring is unstretched when AB is horizontal, determine three values of 0 corresponding to equilibrium when W = 300 lb, I= 16 in., and k= 75 lb/in. State in each case whether the equilibrium is stable, unstable, or neutral.
