The 30-lb collar A is released from rest in the position shown and slides with negligible friction

Question:

The 30-lb collar A is released from rest in the position shown and slides with negligible friction up the fixed rod inclined 30° from the horizontal under the action of a constant force P = 50 lb applied to the cable. Calculate the required stiffness k of the spring so that its maximum deflection equals 6 in. The position of the small pulley at B is fixed.
