A collar B of weight W can move freely along the vertical rod shown. The constant of the spring is k, and the spring is unstretched when 0.= (a) Derive an equation in , W, k, and l that must be satisfied when the collar is in equilibrium. (b) Knowing that 300 N, W = l 500 mm, = and 800 N/m, k = determine the value of corresponding to equilibrium.
