A 1-kg block rests on the smooth semicylindrical surface. An elastic cord having a stiffness k = 30 N/m is attached to the block at B and to the base of the semicylinder at point C. If the block is released from rest at A(0 = 0°), determine the unstretched length of the cord so that the block begins to leave the semicylinder at the instant 0 = 45°.

- The disk B has a mass of 20 kg and is supported on the smooth cylindrical surface by a spring with stiffness k= 400 N/m and unstretched length l0= 1 m. The spring remains in the horizontal position since its end A is attached to the small roller guide which has negligible weight.
