Question 1

If a load of P=10N is applied at x=5m on a beam, express the load function in terms of the Dirac delta function and integrate to find its effect over a 10m beam.

💡 Hint: Consider how localized loads work in influence diagrams.

Question 2

Discuss how the ‘shifting property’ can impact the solution of a dynamic system under impulse loading modeled by a delta function. Illustrate with equations.

💡 Hint: How do you express forces acting instantaneously in dynamics?
