A wooden plank of length 1m and uniform ...

A wooden plank of length 1m and uniform cross-section is hinged at one end to the bottom of a tank as shown in fig. The tank is filled with water upto a hight 0.5m. The specific gravity of the plank is 0.5. Find the angle `theta` that the plank makes with the vertical in the equilibrium position. (Exclude the case `theta=theta^@`)
