Question 1
What type of material is assumed to be the same throughout according to beam bending theory?
- Homogeneous
- Inhomogeneous
- Anisotropic
💡 Hint: Remember the definition of homogeneous.
Question 2
The neutral plane in a beam is where:

Challenge Problems
Push your limits with challenges.
Question 1
A cantilever beam of length 4 m is subjected to a point load of 2000 N at its free end. Calculate the bending stress at a point 1 m from the fixed end. Assume the moment of inertia is 0.001 m^4.
💡 Hint: First, determine the bending moment at that distance.
Question 2
Discuss the effects on the design of a beam if the assumptions of homogeneous and isotropic materials were not satisfied.
💡 Hint: Consider how material inconsistencies can affect structural performance.
