2. (25 pts) 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 and are also at rest. Neglect the mass of member BC and assume the door is a thin plate having a weight of 250 lb anda width and height of 12 ft. Note that there is a similar connection and spring on the other side of the door. 12 ft 15° 7 ft 6 ft D 1 ft
