Could someone please help...?

Hi, this is my first time on the site, so tell me if i am stepping on any toes...
Can someone help me get to the answer here, i really need to understand how to do this, but i am having trouble even getting started, before i give the problem, i do understand equilibrium and vector components, just not when pulley's and springs are added in...
Out of Vector Mechanics for Engineers (Statics) Seventh Edition by Beer and Johnston, it is Chapter 2's question # 71, where a load Q is applied to a pulley C, which can roll an another pulley's line...etc etc,
any hints...?

Hi there! Welcome to the site. I'd be happy to help you with question #71 from Chapter 2 of Vector Mechanics for Engineers (Statics). Can you please provide the full problem statement so I can better understand the scenario and give you the most accurate guidance? Also, can you specify which part you're having trouble with - the pulleys, springs, or both? This will help me give you more specific hints and clarify any concepts you may be struggling with. Looking forward to hearing back from you!
