The uniform rectangular door panel has a mass of 25 kg and is held in equilibrium above the horizontal at the position θ = 60° by rod BC. Determine the required stiffness of the torsional spring at A, so that the door's angular velocity becomes zero when the door reaches the closed position (θ = 0°) once the supporting rod BC is removed. The spring is undeformed when θ = 60°.
