When = 0, the uniform block of weight Wb compresses the two vertical springs a distance

When θ = θ0, the uniform block of weight Wb compresses the two vertical springs a distance δ. If the uniform links AB and CD each weigh WL, determine the magnitude of the applied couple moments M needed to maintain equilibrium.

Given:

θ0 = 20 deg a = 1 ft

Wb = 50 lb b = 4 ft

δ = 4 in c = 1 ft

WL = 10 lb d = 2 ft

K=21b/in
