The horizontal beam is supported by springs at its ends. If the stiffness of the spring at A is kA = 5kN/m, determine the required stiffness of the spring at B so that if the beam is loaded with the 800 N it remains in the horizontal position. The springs are originally constructed so that the beam is in the horizontal position when it isunloaded.
