The end A of the garage door AB travels along the horizontal track, and the end of member BC is attached to a spring at C. If the spring is originally unstretched, determine the stiffness k so that when the door falls downward from rest in the position shown, it will have zero angular velocity the moment it closes, i.e., when it and BC become vertical. Neglect the mass of member BC and assume the door is a thin plate having a weight of 200 lb and a width and height of 12 ft. There is a similar connection and spring on the other side of the door.

Two torsional springs, \(M = k \theta\), are used to assist in opening and closing the hood of this truck. Assuming the springs are uncoiled (\(\theta = 0^{\circ}\)) when the hood is opened, determine the stiffness \(k (N \cdot m/rad)\) of each spring so that the hood can easily be lifted, i.e., practically no force applied to it, when it is closed in the unlocked position.
