Determine the magnitude of the force \( \mathbf{F} \) if \( d=1.8 \mathrm{~m} \). Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units.
The springs \( B A \) and \( B C \) each have a stiffness of \( 500 \mathrm{~N} / \mathrm{m} \) and an unstretched length of \( 3 \mathrm{~m} \). The horizontal force \( \mathbf{F} \) is applied to the cord which is attached to the small ring \( B \) so that the displacement of the ring from the wall is \( d \).
