A force P of magnitude 240 N is applied to end E of cable CDE, which passes

Question:

A force P of magnitude 240 N is applied to end E of cable CDE, which passes under pulley D and is attached to the mechanism at C. Neglecting the weight of the mechanism and the radius of the pulley, determine the value of θ corresponding to equilibrium. The constant of the spring is k = 4 kN/m, and the spring is unstretched when θ = 90°.
