Textbook Question
Chapter 18.5, Problem 66P
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 12ft. There is a similar connection and spring on the other side of the door.

I submitted the below question and received the answer i copied into this question as well. Im unsure if it is correct, so looking for a checkover. i am stuck on the part tan-1 (0.05) = 0.04996 radians. Just unsure where the value for the radians came from. Just need to know how they got that answer and how it is correct before moving on to the next part. If any of the below information is wrong, please feel free to give me a new answer or an entire new explanation.
An Inclining experiment done on a ship thats 6500 t, a mass of 30t was moved 6.0 m transvesly causing a 30 cm deflection in a 6m pendulum, calculate the transverse meta centre height.
Here is the step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Displacement of the ship (W) = 6500 tonnes = 6500×1000=6,500,000kg
Mass moved transversely (w) = 30 tonnes=30×1000=30,000kg
The transverse shift of mass (d) = 6.0 meters
Pendulum length (L) = 6.0 meters
Pendulum deflection (x) = 30 cm = 0.30 meters
Step 1: Formula for Metacentric Height…
