Question:

A vertical force P of magnitude 150 N is applied to end E of cable CDE, which passes over a small pulley D and is attached to the mechanism at C. The constant of the spring is k = 4 kN/m, and the spring is unstretched when θ = 0. Neglecting the weight of the mechanism and the radius of the pulley, determine the value of θ corresponding to equilibrium.
